The five-match T20 series between India and New Zealand begins today in Nagpur ahead of the T20 World Cup. Captain Suryakumar Yadav's poor form remains a concern, while the return of Hardik Pandya, Jasprit Bumrah, and Varun Chakravarthy strengthens the team. A contest brews between Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan for spots in the playing XI.
New Zealand defeated India by 50 runs in the fourth T20I played in Visakhapatnam. Indian captain Suryakumar Yadav explained that the team deliberately fielded six batters to give opportunities to World Cup squad members and test challenging situations. Despite Shivam Dube's explosive innings, India was bowled out for 165.
