India VS New ZealandIn Sunday's match, New Zealand was steamrolled entirely by India and had a poor run of form in the IT20s. Although they have the home advantage, they will have to up their performance in this match to be competitive.
India may be without some of its best-known players, but they have a solid team on this tour. They have match-winners in all departments and an excellent record against New Zealand recently.
India Players to Watch
1. Suryakumar Yadav - With Virat Kohli out of the lineup for this series, Suryakumar Yadav was promoted to third in the order and replied with his second-highest IT20 total on Sunday.
2. Hardik Pandya - The captain is a talented hitter and bowler who is also an inspirational leader. He elected not to bowl in the second game of the series, but he should like the conditions in Napier.
New Zealand Players to Watch
1. Glenn Phillips, the right-handed 25-year-old, hit one of the two centuries in the T20 World Cup. He has passed 100 twice in this format and will be a crucial wicket for India in this clash.
2. Lockie Ferguson: Right-arm pace bowler Lockie Ferguson will be looking to step up and take on the role of New Zealand's leading strike bowler in the IT20s. He has the pace to trouble any batter on any surface, so he'll be a key player to watch in the upcoming series.
