Ahmedabad Pitch Report

The state-of-the-art stadium is the adopted home of Rajasthan Royals. It is known to produce rank turners in red ball cricket. The average first innings score in T20s here is 155. We feel another low scoring encounter could be on the cards here with the pitch conducive to spin bowling.

IND PLAYING 11

1. Ishan Kishan
2. Shubman Gill
3. Rahul Tripathi
4. Suryakumar Yadav
5. Hardik Pandya (C)
6. Deepak Hooda
7. Washington Sundar
8. Shivam Mavi
9. Arshdeep Singh
10. Kuldeep Yadav
11. Yuzvendra Chahal

Prithvi Shaw might have to wait for another series to make his comeback. It is very harsh on him given his domestic form.
The bowling unit ran riot in the Kiwi ranks and should remain the same.
Hooda and Washinton Sundar will continue to provide their all-round services. Skipper Pandya’s bowling gives a lot of options to this side.

Here are the best fantasy cricket picks for the match from India:

Washington Sundar Stats in T20Is

A clever bowler whose biggest strength is his economy and stump to stump line. He was promoted up the order after his fifty in the first game.

innings	Wickets	Economy Rate	Average	Last 3 T20Is
33	29	7.22	28.03	1/24, 2/22, 1/17

Hardik Pandya Stats in T20Is

We are once again recommending the skipper as we believe all-rounders have a better chance of scoring points here.

Batting:

Innings	Runs	Average	Strike Rate	Recent Form in T20Is
66	1238	25.4	133.8	29, 12, 4, 21, 15*

Bowling:

innings	Wickets	Economy Rate	Average	Last 3 T20Is
75	65	8.26	27.8	2/30, 0/33, 1/25

NZ PLAYING 11

1. Finn Allen
2. Devon Conway
3. Mark Chapman
4. Daryl Mitchell
5. Glenn Phillips
6. Michael Bracewell
7. Mitchell Santner
8. Jacob Duffy
9. Ish Sodhi
10. Blair Tickner
11. Lockie Ferguson

Kiwis should field a similar squad despite throwing a disasterclass in the first game. They dont have many options on the bench barring wicket-keeper batsman Dane Cleaver.
Santner, Bracewell and Sodhi will continue given the slow nature of wicket in Ahmedabad.
Leg-spinner Michael Rippon and pacer Ben Lister are also in the squad who are worth a look-in.

Here are the best fantasy cricket picks for the match from New Zealand:

Mitchell Santner Stats in T20Is

Santner has been spot on with his bowling changes and was unlucky not to pick a wicket in the previous game. Funnily enough, he was also the top scorer in that game for the Blackcaps.

innings	Wickets	Economy Rate	Average	Last 3 T20Is
81	91	7.02	21.8	0/5, 2/30, 0/20

Glenn Phillips Stats in T20Is

Phillips is a dangerous batsman when on song and he can also contribute with the bowl in hand.

Batting:

Innings	Runs	Best	Bat Avg	SR
51	1383	108	32.16	145.5

who will win India vs New Zealand Today match?

Although India has never beaten New Zealand in the T20 World Cup, they can make it 5 bilateral series wins on wednesday as opposed to the Kiwis’ 3 wins.
India have won 12 matches versus New Zealand while the Kiwis have won 9.
Ish Sodhi is the highest wicket taker in India-New Zealand T20 clashes.

We expect Team India to complete yet another bilateral series win as per our today match prediction.
