History for India in Wellington! Shubman Gill's men break Australia's 2005 record with win during IND vs NZ 2nd ODI

India’s seam bowlers thrived in Wellington as they beat New Zealand by four runs via the Duckworth‑Lewis‑Stern method in the rain‑hit second ODI, giving Shubman Gill’s side a 2‑0 series lead and breaking Australia’s 2005 record. After a dramatic batting collapse that left New Zealand 113/7 in 26 overs, persistent showers ended the contest early. Young pacer Gurnoor Brar’s four‑wicket haul (4‑30) powered the win and earned him Player of the Match, with captain Gill backing the bowler’s consistency. The conditions were described as seam‑friendly.
