Hardik Pandya reached a milestone in the first T20I against South Africa at Cuttack's Barabati Stadium by smashing his 100th six in international T20 cricket. Suryakumar Yadav struggled, scoring 12 runs off 11 balls before being dismissed by Lungi Ngidi. The match sparked debates on batting order consistency for the Indian team.
With the series already secured at 3-0, India heads into the fourth T20I against New Zealand in Visakhapatnam, focusing on giving opportunities to key players like Sanju Samson. The match at ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium offers a chance for rotations amid New Zealand's struggles.
