Virat Kohli's Absence Looms Over India-England Series: Will He Miss the 3rd Test?

New Zealand has won the toss and has opted to bat first in the 2nd T20 against India, being played at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow, on Sunday, December 29, 2023. The match start time is 7:00 PM IST.

Indian skipper Hardik Pandya was also looking to bat first, it seems; he said after the toss, “We were also thinking of batting first, but bowling is also fine. This is a new team, but we have spoken about getting into the challenge and doing difficult things. It can’t difficult than this in a bilateral series, losing the first game and then two games on the line.

“Looking forward to this game. We are going to make mistakes and learn from them. It’s important they come out here and enjoy the sport. We all should remember that we started playing this sport to enjoy, so I just want to pass that message to the team.

“It might turn. That’s the reason we have made one change. Umran misses out, and Yuzi comes in. The KulCha is back, a lot of people wanted to see it, they are wicket-takers. The way Washi is playing, we’ve got three proper spinners who can squeeze if required.”

Mitchell Santner: We are gonna have a bat. The stats say that it’s challenging to chase here. We’ll try to get some runs on the board and see what it does. We had a tough one-day series, it was nice to bounce back with a win. Different guys stepping up at different times is always nice. It’s never easy to beat India at home.

That partnership between Surya and Hardik put them right back in the game. The key is to take wickets through the middle, that’s the best way to slow them down. You got to take that (bigger ground dimensions) into account. Same team.
