IND vs NZ: Hardik Pandya & Co aim to put on a dominant performance in the third T20 against New Zealand
- New-look India began their T20 era with a bang, the team put on a commanding display with bat and bowl in hand.
- Skipper Pandya rotated the bowlers well and set aggressive field placements. The biggest positive for India was the performance of spinners Yuzvendra Chahal and Washington Sundar.
- Experiment of playing Rishabh Pant at the top backfired, but the management will persist with the youngster.
- India won’t lose the series even if they face defeat in the third T20. It remains to be seen if coach VVS Laxman and captain Pandya give chances to other fringe players.
