IND v NZ memes, WTC Final: Top 10 funny memes from Day 6

India lost the WTC Final to New Zealand by eight wickets.

New Zealand beat India by eight wickets in the inaugural WTC final to become the first-ever ICC World Test Champions. The Black Caps dominated the Indian cricket team on the reserve day of the WTC final and clinched the trophy in Southampton.

India had an opportunity to put pressure on New Zealand by batting well in the second innings. However, none of the Indian batsmen could put together a big knock. Overnight batsmen Virat Kohli and Cheteshwar Pujara departed to the pavilion early while vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane soon lost his wicket to Trent Boult.

Rishabh Pant and Ravindra Jadeja stitched up a decent partnership in the middle. The two left-handers added 39 runs for the sixth wicket before Neil Wagner sent Jadeja back to the dressing room.

After Pant lost his wicket because of a bad shot, the Indian lower-order collapsed. New Zealand received a 139-run target to win the first WTC final. Although Ravichandran Ashwin dismissed Kiwi openers Devon Conway and Tom Latham before the team touched 50, an unbeaten 96-run partnership between Ross Taylor and Kane Williamson helped New Zealand win by eight wickets.

Williamson scored 52 runs off 89 deliveries while Taylor supported him with an excellent 100-ball knock of 47*. The Indian fielders dropped a few catches on the field that ultimately proved very costly. Unfortunately, Virat Kohli's men could not even pull off a draw in Southampton.
