IND vs NZ Live: This series against the Black Caps will be considerably more difficult for Indian players. A few months ago in New Zealand, India were humiliated by New Zealand. They would seek retribution for that series loss. Additionally, they’ll be fielding a side at full strength this time and the home conditions will benefit them as well.
Every sport includes home field advantage. In cricket, it is even more of an influence due to crowds, weather, and pitches, resulting in fewer losses for some teams. Since losing to Australia in 2019, India haven’t dropped an at-home ODI series. Additionally, since 2016, India has only lost one home ODI series, and if we exclude the Australia series, they have been winning back-to-back home series.
Devon Conway
In the series against Pakistan, Devon Conway scored the second-most runs for New Zealand. The hitter has faced India in just three ODIs, but he boasts a 62 average. He might very well pose a danger to India’s potential to keep their winning streak at home.
