Preview:

New Zealand and India will face off each other in the 2nd of the 3 matches T20I series on Sunday. Rain took the 1st T20I as the game was washed out without a single ball being bowled. Now it’s a must-win game for both sides to seal the series. New Zealand has great memories playing here at Bay Oval as they have won 5 of their 7 full T20Is played. They have made subtle changes to their squad after their exit in the T20 World Cup semi-final. Their way of approach is totally different from other sides especially in the T20 format as they still being old school. Will they change going forward we need to wait and watch.

The second-string Indian side had to wait for more to secure a win on New Zealand soil. India has played only one game here at Bay Oval and won by 7 runs. They have bought in VVS Laxman as their interim coach for this tour giving a break for regular coach Rahul Dravid which is unusual. Stand-in skipper Hardik Pandya is feeling confident about giving his best for the side in the remaining two matches. Despite getting knocked out in the T20 World Cup semi-final they still hold the top spot in the ICC T20I rankings.
