Washinton Sundar stole the limelight by taking seven wickets and creating a new WTC record against New Zealand.  <!-- \/8323530\/ITv_Desktop_VDO_1X1 -->\n  <\/p>\n<p>Sundar was not part of the squad for the first match and\u00a0was included in the team after a heavy loss in Bengaluru. Sundar replaced <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/kuldeep-yadav\" rel=\"noopener\">Kuldeep Yadav<\/a> in India&#8217;s playing eleven and made an instant impact with his career-best international figures.<\/p>\n<p>The 25-year-old right-arm off-spinner bowled a magical spell to claim seven wickets for 59 in his 23.1 overs. Sundar produced the best bowling figures against New Zealand in the World Test Championship (WTC) history. He\u00a0became the first bowler to take seven wickets against the Kiwis since the inception of the WTC in 2019.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Best bowling figures vs New Zealand in WTC history<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ol>&#13;<\/p>\n<li>Washington Sundar &#8211; 7\/59 in Pune, 2024<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li>Prabath Jayasuriya &#8211; 6\/42 in Galle, 2024<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li>Ebadot Hossain &#8211; 6\/46 in\u00a0Mount Maunganui, 2022<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/nathan-lyon\" rel=\"noopener\">Nathan Lyon<\/a> &#8211; 6\/65 in Wellingson, 2024<\/li>\n<p>&#13;<\/p>\n<li>Taijul Islam &#8211; 6\/76 in\u00a0Sylhet, 2023<\/li>\n<p>&#13;\n<\/ol>\n<p>Meanwhile, Sundar also produced the best figures in Test cricket at Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune. He broke Australian spinner Steve O&#8217;Keefe&#8217;s 6 for 35 record against India at the MCA Stadium in February 2017. He also became the first-ever Indian bowler to take a five-wicket haul in Pune in Test cricket history.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Just focused on hitting the right areas consistently,&#8221; Sundar said after Day 1&#8217;s play.\u00a0&#8220;We knew it would start spinning from Day 1. (On whether there was a favourite wicket) Certainly the Rachin Ravindra wicket, because he was batting really well, and even the Daryl Mitchell wicket.&#8221;    <\/p>\n<p>However, New Zealand were quick to hit back with <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/tim-southee\" rel=\"noopener\">Tim Southee<\/a> removing Indian captain <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/topic\/rohit-sharma\" rel=\"noopener\">Rohit Sharma<\/a> on a duck in the fifth over. India scored 16 for 1 in 11 overs and are trailing by 243 runs at the end of Day 1 in Pune.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async>\nfunction loadFacebookScript(){\n!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\nn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;\nn.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\nt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,\ndocument,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\nfbq('init', '529056027274737');\nfbq('track', 'PageView');\n}\nwindow.addEventListener('load', (event) => {\n\tsetTimeout(function(){\n        loadFacebookScript();\n\t}, 5000);\n});\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiatvnews.com\/sports\/cricket\/washington-sundar-scripts-wtc-record-after-magical-spell-against-new-zealand-in-pune-test-2024-10-24-958693\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Image Source : AP Washington Sundar during the second Test against New Zealand in Pune on October 24, 2024 New Zealand cricket team stumbled to just 259 in their first innings of the second Test match against India in Pune on Thursday.
