After rains in Wellington foiled the first T20, India will head towards the series’ second match to gain its first victory against the kiwis on November 20. The 2nd match will be played at Bay Oval, Mount Maunganui, starting at 12:00 PM.
India’s new skipper Hardik Pandya is leading the team for the three matches T20 series against New Zealand while Shikhar Dhawan will captain in the three-match ODI series. On the other hand, the Kiwis are led by skipper Kane Williamson.
India and New Zealand have played each other in a total of 20 T20I matches up to this point, with India winning 11 games and New Zealand winning nine.

Pitch report:
Batting on Bay Oval’s surface is a good idea. The pitch may offer something to fast bowlers at the start of the game with some help from the possible overcast conditions, but it is expected to help the batters with shorter boundaries.
