New Zealand’s first test win in India came in 1969 in the Nagpur Test; the second time New Zealand beat India in India was in 1988 at Wankhede Stadium.

Compared to New Zealand, India has a better away record in Tests, with five test wins in the Kiwi nation.

India’s first test win in New Zealand came in Dunedin in 1968. In Wellington, India registered their second away victory in 1968, and the third test win also came in the same 1968 series at Eden Park.

India registered all these three test wins in the 1967-68 India Tour of New Zealand, which was India's first-ever overseas test series win too.

1976, the Eden Park Test was India’s fourth test win in New Zealand, and India’s last Test match win in New Zealand came in 2009, Hamilton.
