India vs New Zealand T20I series: All you need to know about the upcoming 3-match T20I series between India and New Zealand, starting Friday in Ranchi

Team India will battle it out against New Zealand in a three-match T20I series starting on January 27, Friday. The Men in Blue already completed a clean sweep in the ODI series against the Kiwis, winning it 3-0. Shubman Gill played a prolific part in the series scoring a double century in the first game and recording a century in the third. His exploits won him the player of the series award. The Batting department flexed their muscles getting two 300+ scores throughout the series.

That said, the Indian team will be without experienced campaigners Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli in the T20I series. In their absence, the team will be led by Hardik Pandya with Suryakumar Yadav deputising donning the role of vice-captain. Suryakumar has become a pivotal cog in the Indian T20I squad recently. The Indians beat Sri Lanka 2-1 in their last T20I series without the presence of veterans like Kohli and Sharma, under the leadership of Pandya.

With great momentum heading into this game, the Indian side will be looking to assert their dominance once again, whereas New Zealand will be in the mood for revenge.
