First in 55 years, Rohit Sharma joins an ‘unwanted’ list

India endured a 26-run defeat in the third Test against New Zealand at Wankhede Stadium, completing a 0-3 series whitewash. Captain Rohit Sharma matched MAK Pataudi’s record for most home Test losses in a calendar year, with four in 2024. India’s next challenge is the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series in Australia.
