India will face off against New Zealand in the third and final T20I at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Wednesday, February
After losing the first game by 21 runs, India came back strong in the second match with a six-wicket victory to even the series. However, the team was given a reality check by the Kiwis in the last game, who fought valiantly despite defending just 100 runs.
going into the decider, it’s clear that the Indian batting order needs to step up. Throughout the series, the batting has been a weak point for the team. In the last game, Suryakumar Yadav successfully added the finishing touches. The Men in Blue will need to work on their batting ahead of the decider if they want to come out victorious.
When India and New Zealand play cricket, it’s always an exciting series. The Kiwis are known for their fighting spirit, and they always punch above their weight. Even without some of their key players, they’re still giving India a run for their money.
The series is currently tied 1-1, and the third game could go either way. It will be played at Hyderabad, so the spinners will come into play. New Zealand has two quality spinners in Ish Sodhi & Mitchell Santner. They’re a little worried about their batting, and they’ll need their players to step up their game. The Indian top order will also need some runs under the belt considering how Kishan has not been so successful in his last few innings.

The pitch at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad is a rank turner. It has produced a lot of wickets for the spinners, and it is expected to slow down a bit as the game progresses. This could be another low-scoring affair. The captain who wins the toss is likely to bowl first.
