India’s high-flying campaign in the ICC World Test Championship (WTC) came crashing down on Thursday (October 17) as they got bundled out for just 46 runs in the first innings of the first Test in Bengaluru. Notably, this is the lowest total registered by a team in a Test innings in India.
India have shattered New Zealand’s record to create a new all-time record for the lowest score registered by a team in Tests in India. New Zealand had previously scored 62 against India in December 2021 and it was the lowest total registered by a team in a Test innings in India before the carnage inflicted by the Kiwi bowlers on the Rohit Sharma-led side on Thursday.
