DEVELOPING STORYDEVELOPING STORY,

New Zealand win third Test by 25 runs and the series 3-0 as hosts India are bowled out for 121 at the Wankhede Stadium.

New Zealand have become only the second team in Test cricket history to hand India a home series whitewash after winning their third Test against the hosts by runs in Mumbai.

Needing 147 runs to win the final match and salvage some pride having lost the first two Test matches and the series, India were bundled out for 121 on the third day of the match at the Wankhede Stadium on Sunday.

The series sweep was India’s only second home series whitewash in their 90-year Test history, with the first coming at the hands of South Africa in 2000.

New Zealand off-spin bowler Ajaz Patel took 11 wickets in the match.
