6: India's Greatest Test Victories - Dunedin (1968) - a podcast by India’s Best Test Victories

New Zealand became the fifth team to receive Test status in 1930 while India became the 6th team to receive Test status in 1932. In this podcast we recount India’s first ever overseas win in Tests. India’s first ever Test win, away from home was against New Zealand at Carisbrook in Dunedin. The record of both teams prior to the start of the Test series in New Zealand, in February 1968 was pretty poor. In fact, it was downright abysmal. Out of the 7 teams which had Test status in 1968, (Pakistan were the 7th in 1952), it would not be an exaggeration to say that New Zealand and India, along with Pakistan were right at the bottom of the pile. They were certainly not at the standard of teams like Australia, West Indies, England and South Africa.
