Series: New Zealand tour of India, 2023

India vs New Zealand, 1st T20I 27th january 7pm

Venue: JSCA International Stadium Complex, Ranchi

India defeated New Zealand by 3-0 in the recently concluded ODI series.
After concluding the ODI series on a high note, Team India (IND) will be hosting New Zealand (NZ) for a three-match T20I series.
The first of the three games will be played at the JSCA International Stadium Complex in Ranchi. While the Kiwi side will be led by Mitchell Santner,
India all-rounder Hardik Pandya will do the captaincy hat again for the T20I series.

This time again, the Indian side will be full of fresh faces as Pandya will be leading a comparatively young team. India and
New Zealand last faced each other in a T20I in November 2022, but rain played a spoilsport in their three-match series and only one game was possible.
Eventually, India won the series 1-0. With no weather threats this time around, both sides will be eager to take a lead.

Pitch Report
The pitch at the JSCA International Stadium Complex in Ranchi typically supports the spinners.
It is not a high-scoring surface and thus batters will not have a big part to play. Instead,
teams will struggle to put up a big score. A total of above 150 can be competitive.

KEY PLAYERS TO WATCH BATSMEN Shubman Gill, Suryakumar Yadav, Finn Allen, Devon Conway
