INDIA VS NEW ZEALAND 2023: 2nd T20I | TODAY'S MATCH PREDICTION AND TOP FANTASY PICKS
India will take on New Zealand in the 2nd T20I of the 3-match series at the Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow, on Saturday (29 January) evening.
The Indian team is seldom put under pressure at home in any format. Except for Suryakumar, Hardik, and Washington, no one could stamp their authority in the 1st T20I. In the top order, Kishan, S. Gill, and R. Tripathi will be critical in setting the tone for the rest of the team.
On the other hand, New Zealand started the T20I series with a big win in Ranchi. Spinners M. Santner and M. Bracewell led the bowling attack, while D. Mitchell and D. Conway stood out with the bat. The opportunity to win against India in India comes rare, and New Zealand will be keen to grab this chance here.
