The New Zealand cricket team will face India in the first T20I in a three-match series in Jaipur tomorrow, only two nights after winning the ICC T20 World Cup 2021 Final.
In their ICC T20 World Cup 2021 Super 12 encounter, India were defeated by New Zealand by eight wickets. As a result, India’s early exit from the major competition was entirely due to this mistake.
In the forthcoming three-match T20I series, the Men in Blue will be looking to revenge that loss. Let’s have a look at their head-to-head statistics in T20I cricket before they meet again in the shortest version of the game.
In their head-to-head record versus India, New Zealand holds a slim 9-8 advantage. As previously stated, when the two teams met in the ICC T20 World Cup 2021, the Kiwis came out on top.
In November 2017, India and New Zealand played a T20I match in India for the first time. In that game, played at Greenfield International Stadium, the Men in Blue defeated the Blackcaps by six runs.
