Chasing a modest target of 200 in 49 overs, India were in good position at 182 for four before they almost messed it up and lost six wickets in a space of 17 runs. "We were cruising at 178 for three in the 40th over but in the end it got pretty close," Ganguly said. "It should have been a comfortable victory. But that's the way it goes," he added. The Indian skipper said he had not given any instructions to the lower order batsmen. "We needed just three runs an over. So I did not think of giving instructions. But we lost too many wickets and it became close in the end," Ganguly said. Ganguly looked happy with two wins on the trot after a dismal show on the tour. "It is good to win. We had a poor start to the series. But we won the important tosses as bowling first makes a difference on these pitches," said the Indian captain. in-depth coverage > Indian Cricket Team's New Zealand Tour > |
