The prime reason why India has sealed an unassailable lead in the ongoing series is the spin bowling duo of Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal.

Kuldeep Yadav has picked 8 wickets in the 4 matches of the series. The left-arm chinaman spinner has an economy rate of 4.31 which shows the level to which he has dominated the New Zealand batsmen. Yadav already has 2 four wicket-hauls in the series and he would be looking to add one more to that tally.

Yuzvendra Chahal has played the perfect supporting role to Kuldeep Yadav in the series. Though Chahal has leaked runs at an economy rate of 5.74 in the series, he has provided the team with crucial breakthroughs in the middle overs.

Both the spinners are genuine wicket-takers and have been the main pillar of the Indian bowling attack of late.
