IND vs NZ Match Preview
India enter with momentum from Abhishek Sharma’s 84 off 35 balls, supported by Rinku Singh’s 44 off 20, while bowlers like Varun Chakravarthy (2 wickets) restricted New Zealand to 190/7 despite Glenn Phillips’ 78. New Zealand need middle-order stability after early losses of Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra; India may rest Axar Patel due to injury, bringing in Kuldeep Yadav or Ravi Bishnoi/Harshith Rana.
Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium, Raipur Pitch Report
The pitch offers good carry and bounce early for pacers on black soil, slowing later to aid spinners with grip and turn; large boundaries favor placement over power, with dew making chasing easier—toss crucial.
IND vs NZ Weather Report
Evening dew expected in Raipur, likely favoring teams chasing; no major rain disruptions anticipated.
