On November 22, Tuesday, India will play New Zealand in the series-deciding third Twenty20 International at McLean Park in Napier. They have a comfortable 1-0 advantage. India defeated New Zealand in the second Twenty20 International at Mount Maunganui on Sunday (November 20), taking an unassailable lead in the three-match series.
With yet another T20I century, Suryakumar Yadav stood out, but the Indian bowlers also performed admirably against players like Devon Conway and Kane Williamson. New Zealand will be anxious for a better performance as Team India tries to secure another series victory. Even without Kane Williamson, New Zealand has a quality team with a nice balance of youth and experience. A thrilling game awaits at McLean Park as both teams aim for a win in the decider.
