Rohit Sharma insulted: New Zealand media’s reaction to cleansweep against India

Stuff.co.nz: In the space of 19 days on Indian soil, the Black Caps produced results that the cricketing world had previously considered impossible. An 8-wicket win in Bengaluru, followed by 113-run win in Pune and a 25-run win in Mumbai. 3 losses for Indian team on home soil.

Otago Daily Times: New Zealand completed arguably their greatest ever Test series with a series sweep of India in India last night. Set 146 to win in fourth innings, Rohit Sharma threw first punch by stepping out of crease but the skipper’s disappointing form continued when he fell for 11 after a shot against Matt Henry.

1news.co.nz: Rishabh Pant was the lone resistance for hosts with 64 off 57 balls, which included 9 fours and a six, but his countering half century went to vain as India lost last three wickets in four balls.
