Coach Gary Stead believes the Black Caps' history-making efforts in India have resurrected their chances of a return to the World Test Championship final

Coach Gary Stead believes the Black Caps' history-making efforts in India have resurrected their chances of a return to the World Test Championship final

30 October 2024

After unexpectedly winning the first two matches to seal a first ever test series win on Indian soil with a match to spare - New Zealand are back in contention for a place in the WTC decider.

Stead says the chance for a series whitewash - which India haven't suffered at home since 2000 - now holds even more significance.

The Black Caps complete their Test Championship schedule when they host England in a three-match series next month.
