Players Under the Spotlight
Suryakumar Yadav walks into this IND vs NZ T20 series carrying serious pressure. His bat has gone silent since taking over as captain post the 2024 World Cup. Only 218 runs across 19 T20 innings throughout 2025.
Strike rate fell to 123.16 and average crashed to just 13.62 lately. Way off from what SKY usually delivers with the bat. He needs big scores before the World Cup 2026 arrives soon.
Hardik Pandya looks back to his best after that injury break. His batting has been clicking nicely in recent games. Ishan Kishan comes back after ages away from the team. Captain confirmed he’ll bat at the number 3 spot in this IND vs NZ.
