This is India’s fourth T20 series with New Zealand in the last four years. India has won the last three series without losing any match. This time the circumstances are different. The Black Caps won the first match and Hardik Pandya’s team barely touched the target of 100 in Lucknow to level the series by 1-1. Today, at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, Team India will challenge New Zealand to win the fourth consecutive T20 series.
Will Indian top order score in 3rd T20I?
In the absence of senior cricketers like Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, the young top order of Team India has not been able to leave a mark in the last two matches. Ishaan Kishan, Shubman Gill, Rahul Tripathi all three have not been able to score runs. If Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya had not taken the lead in Lucknow, India would have found it difficult to reach the target of 100 runs. In such a situation, Prithvi Shaw can be included in Team India.
After this India will not play T20 for a long time
After this match, the Indian team does not have to play T20 for a long time. After this, there is a four-Test series with Australia, as well as preparations for the ODI World Cup to be held in October this year. In such a situation, the Indian youth brigade will have this golden opportunity to showcase their talent in this format of cricket.
