India vs New Zealand T20I series is currently in a 2-0 in favour of the visitors. This is a T20 World Cup Year and every single match is going to be watched closely by teams around the world.
Today India will play their third match of the series which might help them clinch the series. The victory in this match will be the first T20I series-win over New Zealand.
India’s batting is warranted with KL Rahul’s dual half centuries and Shreyas Iyer owning the 4th position.
"Having seen KL (Rahul) and Shreyas as young cricketers coming through, in my mind, I have absolutely no doubt that they are match-winners. They are getting their opportunities now and they are showing the world what they are capable of, that is great to see," Rathour, Indian batting coach said.
The bowlers didn’t allow any runs and helped India immensely in their victories. Akhtar lauded pacers Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammad Shami saying: "Have seen a new confidence from Bumrah and Shami as they have now started to create fear in the opposition batsmen. Also, Ravindra Jadeja doesn't let you score runs and bowls some odd spins which and tests the batsmen."
"At present India is dominating the world one-sided. But what will happen to other teams? What will happen to world cricket?" he asked.
It makes perfect sense for India to want to register a win over New Zealand in their backyard. New Zealand will hope to the win the match to keep the series alive.
