Team India and captain Rohit Sharma have created history with their third consecutive win against New Zealand. Actually, this is the first time that India has made a clean sweep of New Zealand in the T20 series on their soil. For the first time in 2012, a home series was played between the two countries.
MS Dhoni was the captain of the team at that time and the Kiwi team defeated India 1-0 in the two-match series. At the same time, in 2017, Team India defeated NZ 2-1 in the 3-match series under the captaincy of Virat Kohli. India had definitely won the series, but the team could not get a chance for a clean sweep, but this time Rohit and Co created history by winning the series 3-0.
