The first clash under the guidance of Rahul Dravid and skipper Rohit Sharma saw India India winning against New Zealand by five wickets. With the victory, the host side has gone 1-0 up in the three-match T20I series. India will now take on New Zealand in the 2nd T20I on Friday.
In the first clash, Suryakumar Yadav’s crucial half-century had helped them get the victory. However, despite Mohammad Siraj and Deepak Chahar’s bowling performances, Rohit Sharma and his men are likely to go unchanged for the second match.
As for the Kiwis, the runners-up in the recently concluded ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021, had given their heart out against India in the first T20I. But, they ended up on the losing side.
However, they did witness excellent innings from Martin Guptill and Mark Chapman with the bat and later with the ball, it was Trent Boult’s incredible spell. If they need to stay alive in the series, they must win the second clash in Ranchi.
