5 overseas venues where India have achieved their most Test success

#2 Eden Park, Auckland

Sunil Gavaskar led from the front in India's clinical victory during the 1976 series

The Eden Park in Auckland has not been much of a favourable home venue for New Zealand. They have lost 15 matches as against ten victories. Against India, the Kiwis have won only once and surrendered two games from five attempts at the stadium. Rusi Surti's all-round brilliance as well as Erapalli Prasanna's eight scalps sealed a 272-run victory and the ensuing 3-1 series triumph for the visitors in 1968.

During the 1976 tour, centuries from skipper Sunil Gavaskar and debutant Surinder Amarnath powered India to a strong first innings total. On either side of that innings, Bhagwat Chandrasekhar and Prasanna's exploits spun New Zealand into submission. After a couple of sedate draws, the Indians returned to Auckland for the final Test of the 2014 series. Despite a stirring fourth innings run-chase, they fell short by 40 runs to lose their first Test at the Eden Park.
