AB de Villiers critiques India's spin struggles after Test defeat to New Zealand

India's cricket team suffered a surprising defeat to New Zealand, losing the second Test by 113 runs. This loss marked India's first home Test series defeat in 12 years, giving New Zealand a 2-0 lead in the series. AB de Villiers commented on India's struggles against spin, stating that the perception of Indian players as the best against spin may not hold true. He noted that teams have improved and that even top players can struggle under pressure on turning wickets. De Villiers also highlighted India's risky decision to prepare a turning pitch, which backfired after losing the toss. He praised New Zealand's bowling strategy and emphasized that they effectively handled the challenges posed by the conditions.
