India thrashes New Zealand by 73 to sweep series

KATHMANDU, November 22: It was yet another comprehensive victory for India as they beat New Zealand by 73 runs to secure a 3-0 clean sweep in the T20I series.

This was India's second-successive clean sweep victory against New Zealand in a T20I series, having registered a 5-0 win over the Kiwis at their own turf in January 2020. India's lower-middle order played a key role in steering India to a strong total of 184/7 before Axar Patel (3/9) rocked the New Zealand run-chase with three quick wickets early on.
