After the frst T20I between India and New Zealand was washed out at the Wellington's Sky Stadium on November 18 (Friday), the action now moves to the 2nd T20I which is to be played at the Bay Oval in Mount Maunganui. It may look like just another bilateral series that India keeps playing there is more significance to it than what is being seen currently. India need to build a quality side for the next T20 World Cup and the squad that has landed in New Zealand has some T20 specialists with the veterans Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli amd KL Rahul missing as they have taken rest.

Hardik Pandya is the captain in this T20 series and he has a rather young side at the helm of things. The likes of Rishabh Pant, Ishan Kishan, Sanju Samson, Umran Malik, Arshdeep Singh form the base of the side. There is Shubman Gill too and it will be interesting to see how he goes in the series. New Zealand too look to reboot. They are still being captained by Kane Williamson who has been slammed earlier for his low strike rate. Glenn Phillips, Finn Allen are exciting prospects for New Zealand and this is a good series to test themselves against the Indian side.
