The first match of India and New Zealand was a low-scoring match but the second one was very low scoring where India and New Zealand did well but India was on the winning side. India was asked to bat first after losing the toss. They used seven bowlers in that match which was a strange decision. Arshdeep Singh was the most successful and highest run-scorer with two wickets in his account in two overs against just seven runs. Kuldeep Yadav, Deepak Hooda, Chahal, Washington Sundar, and Hardik Pandya picked one wicket each.

Shivam Mavi was the only bowler in the previous match who failed to pick any wicket. The batsmen of team India was also struggling in the previous match even though they chased the target of 100 runs in 19.5 overs and they lost their key five batsmen while chasing a low target. Suryakumar Yadav was the most successful and highest run-scorer from their side. He remained not out after scoring 26 runs. He faced 31 balls and smashed just one huge six. Ishan Kishan also performed well and scored 19 runs while he faced 32 balls and smashed two boundaries. The skipper, Hardik Pandya remained not out after scoring 15 runs and Shubman Gill scored 11 runs.

New Zealand had just been outstanding in both previous T20 matches. They won the first match and nearly won the previous match where they won the toss and decided to bat first but their batting order failed to put a handsome total on the board and scored just 99 runs in 20 overs. The skipper, Mitchell Santner was the most successful and highest run-scorer with just 19 runs to his name and remained not out till the 20th over. He faced 23 balls and smashed just one boundary. M Bracewell and Mark Chapman scored 14 runs each while Finn Allen and Devon Conway scored 11 runs each. Daryl Mitchell scored 8 runs.

The bowling unit of New Zealand performed well in the previous match but they made a strange decision as they used a total of eight bowlers and leaked the target of 100 runs with just one ball remaining. Jacob Duffy, Michael Bracewell, Glenn Phillips, Ish Sodhi, Mark Chapman, Lockie Ferguson, Blair Tickner, and the skipper, Mitchell Santner were used as bowlers in the previous match. Michael Bracewell and Ish Sodhi picked one wicket each in the second match while no other bowler could manage to pick any wicket. Blair Tickner, Lockie Ferguson, Mark Chapman, Glenn Phillips, Mitchell Santner, and Jacob Duffy were the bowlers who failed to pick any wicket.

The 3rd T20 match of the New Zealand tour of India is going to be held at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad. The pitch at this stadium is excellent for batting. The boundaries at this venue are short and will bring the spinners into play. The pitch will continue to be good for batting throughout the match. It also has a bit of help for the spin bowlers.
