Team India succumbs to New Zealand spinners- lose 3.0

It’s a real disgrace on on the part of the Team India for their poor performance in the three-test series against New Zealand resulting in 3.0 whitwash. What happened to Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli?
What has coach Gautam Gambhir to say?

The Worldcup success seem to have gone into their heads plus they were much over confident and took New Zealand for granted..isn’t it a shame to lose cheaply on home grounds?. What are they going to do playing against Australia? BCCI must give a big thought to the defeat and not to take it lightly

It was a record-breaking series for the Rohit Sharma-led Indian side, just not in a good way
