Talking Points:

  • New Zealand's finest hour: breaking India's 13 year home streak
  • When India were dominated in typical Indian conditions 
  • Mitchell Santner's golden Test
  • India's batters caught between defense and attack
  • India's spinners undone by a barrage of sweeps and reverse-sweeps
  • Washington Sundar's terrific spells 
  • Were India's spinners too quick for this pitch?
  • The question of length: and the problem in front of Ashwin and Jadeja 
  • Rohit Sharma's urge to attack - and how it could be getting him in trouble
  • Jaiswal's blistering knock
  • India's problem of a core group aging together
