#3. Kul-Cha and the waterfall of wickets

Just like the speedsters, India's very own wrist-spin duo of Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal -- lovingly called "KulCha" by the fans -- is another reason why the Men in Blue are reigning supreme in the game. Arguably the world's best spin combo at the moment -- especially in limited overs, both Kuldeep and Chahal would easily walk into any successful side by virtue of their wrist-spinning brilliance.
Though Kuldeep remained wicket-less in today's game, Chahal added two more to his tally and in the process brought about an exciting record. The Kuldeep-Chahal duopoly is now 101-wickets tall, and their strike rate of 27.86 is the highest for any bowling combo to have crossed the 100-scalps mark.
Kuldeep picked 4-fers in both the first and second matches of the series and became the first bowler ever to achieve the feat in New Zealand, while Chahal has picked two each in all of the three games so far. Altogether, that accounts for 14 out of the 30 Kiwi wickets that the Indian bowlers have taken down, in the ongoing series
