The action now moves to T20 cricket as India and New Zealand will clash in a five-match T20I series beginning Wednesday (Jan 21) in Nagpur. After New Zealand’s historic 2-1 win in the ODI series, marking their first-ever bilateral series triumph over India in India, both teams are aiming to gear up for the T20 World Cup next month. Here are all the streaming details for the 1st T20I between India and New Zealand in Nagpur.
Both India and New Zealand have named their best lineups for the five-match T20I series, with India’s squad identical to the one selected for the 20-team tournament beginning on February 7 in India and Sri Lanka. India have added Ravi Bishnoi and Shreyas Iyer (first three matches) to the squad for Washington Sundar and Tilak Varma.
New Zealand’s squad is packed with seasoned players and match-winners, several of whom were either on rest or recovering from injuries during the recent ODI series against India. The T20I squad welcomes back seamers Lockie Ferguson, Matt Henry, and Jacob Duffy, who was New Zealand’s best bowler across formats last year, along with their T20I captain Mitchell Santner.
