Rohit Sharma&#8217;s side will be feeling the heat ahead of a challenging five-match series against Australia.<\/p>\n<p>Rishabh Pant was the lone Indian batsman to show resistance as he made a sublime 64 after the hosts were reduced to 29-5 on a turning Wankhede Stadium track.<\/p>\n<p>Ajaz Patel claimed 6-57, his second five-wicket haul in the match, to skittle the hosts again.<\/p>\n<p>Sharma threw the first punch by stepping out of his crease to hit Matt Henry for a four in the opening over, but the skipper&#8217;s disappointing recent run of form continued when he fell for 11 after a rash shot against the same bowler.<\/p>\n<p>Patel made it two wickets in two overs as Shubman Gill, who had scored a splendid 90 in the first innings, left a ball that crashed into the stumps and departed for one.<\/p>\n<p>Virat Kohli did not last long after arriving at the crease as he edged Patel back to slip on one to leave India in trouble at 18-3 on a tricky Wankhede Stadium pitch.<\/p>\n<p>The crowd fell silent again as Yashasvi Jaiswal was trapped lbw for five by Glenn Phillips and Sarfaraz Khan hit a full toss from Patel straight to Rachin Ravindra in the deep on one.<\/p>\n<p>Ravindra Jadeja steadied the ship alongside Pant in a 42-run stand, but a stunning catch by Will Young meant India were on the ropes at 71-6.<\/p>\n<p>Patel dismissed Pant following a New Zealand review after lunch, though the batsman appeared to suggest that he had not made contact with the ball before it was caught.<\/p>\n<p>The runs dried up after that and India collapsed in a heap.<\/p>\n<p>New Zealand resumed their second innings on 171-9 earlier, but India needed only 14 balls to bowl the Black Caps out, as Jadeja had Patel caught in the deep to end with fine figures of 5-55 after also bagging five in the first stanza.<\/p>\n<p>The tourists won the opening match in Bengaluru by eight wickets for their first Test victory in India in 36 years, and wrapped up the series in Pune with a 113-run win.<\/p>\n<p>New Zealand&#8217;s maiden series triumph in India going back to 1955 also snapped the hosts&#8217; home streak of 18 straight series triumphs since a 2-1 loss to England in 2012.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-africa\">South-Africa<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Africa.
