5/65 vs New Zealand (Wellington, 2009)

After returning from injury, Zaheer bowled from a shorter run-up, but it was still good enough for the Kiwi batsmen to fall in trap of Zaheer’s bang on line and length. The first Test ended in a draw and India won the second match to go 1-0 up in the series.Zaheer was exceptional right from the word go, as he exhibited tremendous swing bowling to dismiss New Zealand for just 197 runs. Picked up 5 wickets giving away just 65 runs in the first innings. Added two wickets more in the second innings, but rain spoiled India’s victory charge, though they took the three-match series 1-0. A fine performance nonetheless!
