Key Player

Rohit Sharma (India)

Rohit Sharma is a class act without a fragment of a doubt. In the early game confronting Pakistan, he was disappointed to open his account after Shaheen Shah Afridi was deemed for his wicket with an in-dipper. But against Team New Zealand, the Nagpur-born has remarkable records. In 13 matches, Rohit has tallied 338 runs with an average of 30.72. In the last two games, he made scores of 65 and a thriving 60.

Mitchell Santner

Mitchell Santner has been one of the most productive spinners in the format for the Kivi team, even pulling up a wicket facing Pakistan in the past game. Combining his fielding and batting prowess into the mix only adds value to his addition to the New Zealand team.

KL Rahul

Star opener KL Rahul is due for a big blow at the top of the order for India. He has been in excellent form in recent months and will be looking to shrug off his defeat against Pakistan with a stabler performance versus New Zealand. He will be the ace card under the shelves for the Indian team

Team News

• The injury to pace bowler Lockie Ferguson has stripped New Zealand of one of the class pace bowlers in this format. His freemartin injury means that he will not take any role in the T20 World Cup 2021 and he has been displaced by Adam Milne. New Zealand grows on the flexibility of selection and it would be a wonder to see any changes on the side.

• Hardik Pandya has been bowling in the nets indicating that he is likely to be able to bowl in this match. The all-rounder damaged his shoulder whilst batting against Pakistan and did not take the field for the Pakistan return on Sunday. With Pandya fit, you can expect to see the same XI from India in this match.
