The first match of the five T20 match series is to be played between India and New Zealand in Nagpur on Wednesday. There is excitement about this match among the young cricketers and fans. Young cricketers believe that forgetting the disappointment of the defeat in the ODI series, the Indian team will make a strong comeback in the T20 series and capture the series.
Young cricket fans believe that the Indian team is stronger in the T20 format and this will affect the outcome of the series.
Speaking to IANS, young cricketer Paras BK Singh said, “There are a lot of expectations from the Indian team. Ishan Kishan has returned to the team after performing well in domestic cricket. There are also a lot of expectations from him. The team has players like Abhishek, Suryakumar Yadav, Shivam Dubey, Hardik Pandya, Patel, and Rinku Singh who can single-handedly change the match.”
Another young cricketer said, “Both young and experienced players are playing in the Indian team. So we are expected to win. New Zealand team is also good, but with the presence of all-rounders like Hardik Pandya and Axar Patel, the Indian team is stronger and the team should win.”
The 5 T20 match series against New Zealand is a big opportunity for the Indian team to practice before the World Cup. The Indian team will try to overcome all its weaknesses in this series starting from Wednesday. The Indian team will have to perform exceptionally well in all three departments, batting, bowling or fielding, only then a strong team like New Zealand can be defeated and can go into the World Cup with confidence.
The form of Indian captain Suryakumar Yadav is a matter of biggest concern. He has a chance to score runs and regain his lost confidence before the World Cup. The match to be played in Nagpur on Wednesday will be the 100th T20 of Suryakumar Yadav’s career. It remains to be seen how he makes this match memorable for himself and the team.
