PREVIEW: India will play with New Zealand in the second T20I on Sunday. Team India faced a defeat in Ranchi in the 1st T20I. India now will be eager to bounce back and restore the parity in Lucknow. While New Zealand buoyed by their first win on India Tour will be looking to clinch the T20 series at Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium. Hence, Hardik Pandya and Rahul Dravid will have some tough choices to make for the team selection in the 2nd T20I.

Hardik Pandya will try to keep his T20I series winning momentum going in Lucknow. So far, the all-arounder has done a good job of organising his team and keeping his composure. Rahul Tripathi - Shubman Gill - Shivam Mavi - Mukesh Kumar and Prithvi Shaw are just a few of the talented young players that Pandya would be excited to play.

In T20 series, New Zealand defeated the Indian side to take a 1-0 series lead on Friday. Following India’s decision to put New Zealand into the batting, the NZ openers Devon Conway (52 runs off 35 balls) and Finn Allen (35 runs off 23 balls) made a strong start before Daryl Mitchell (59* off 30) put the team on his shoulders and scored ahead. Mitchell scored 27 runs in the final over, bringing the total to 176 runs.

Even though their total was respectable, the Indian batters lost early wickets. With his 47 off 34, Suryakumar Yadav swung the momentum in India’s favour, but as soon as he was sent back, the wickets began to fall. Washington Sundar persevered till the very end, scoring his first fifty, but the India fell 21 runs short.

The match will be played in Lucknow. The pitch at Ekana Cricket Stadium is a batting friendly, owing to its flat nature. Batting second will be the preferred option owing to dew having its say.
