After New Zealand seals historic win vs India Glenn Phillips drops perfect response to ‘IPL’ question
On Saturday it was a historic day in Pune as New Zealand cricket team defeated India by 113 runs in the second Test, and also bagged a series-clinching 2-0 victory. The result also saw New Zealand end India’s record of 18 consecutive bilateral home series wins.
After the match the all rounder of New Zealand cricket team Glenn Phillips was asked if Santner’s IPL experience helped him torment the Indian batting order. In response to this question he said, “It does get easy but you can never fully learn the conditions until you are here. At the end of the day, Mitch was bowling absolutely brilliantly and it was about holding the other end for us and let Santner do his thing.”
Phillips, himself took three wickets in the Test match. In the second innings, Santner accounted for the dismissals of YashasviJaiswal (77), Rohit Sharma (8), Shubman Gill (23), Virat Kohli (17), Sarfaraz Khan (9), R Ashwin (18).
