India pulled off a stunning comeback at Bay Oval, Mount Maunganui, defending a modest 209 to beat New Zealand by 22 runs in the 5th and final ODI and clinch the five-match series 3-1! With this victory, Shreyas Iyer’s side also snapped New Zealand’s 7-year streak of 11 consecutive bilateral ODI series wins on home soil.
1. Top-Order Collapse Again: After being put in to bat, Rohit Sharma (7) and Virat Kohli (5) fell early once more, leaving India reeling at 34/3.
2. Middle & Lower-Order Rescue: Axar Patel (46 off 55) and Ishan Kishan (46 off 58) anchored the innings before a massive 26-run last-wicket stand between Mohammed Siraj (14*) and Arshdeep Singh (14 off 4 balls) pushed India to 209—the exact margin that decided the match.
3. Bowling Masterclass: Every Indian bowler took at least one wicket. Player of the Match Arshdeep Singh (3/30) broke the back of the Kiwi chase, backed up by Mohammed Siraj (2/50) and Axar Patel (2/28), who sealed the win by having Blair Tickner stumped in the 49th over (NZ 187 all out).
4. Series Awards: Gurnoor Brar was named Player of the Series for his 9 wickets across 3 innings.
