Toss India chose to bowl vs New Zealand
After his third win in three tosses, India captain Shreyas Iyer chose to bowl for the third time in the T20I series against New Zealand.
India, already 2-0 up, named an unchanged XI, with Ishan Kishan still recovering from the groin strain that kept him out of the second T20I in Christchurch. It remains to be seen if Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, who replaced Kishan, will continue to bat at No. 3.
New Zealand made three changes, all to their pace attack, with Matt Henry and Lockie Ferguson sitting out as expected, and Nathan Smith also missing out. Adam Milne, Kyle Jamieson and Matthew Fisher came into the side.
India: 1 Abhishek Sharma, 2 Sanju Samson (wk), 3 Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, 4 Shreyas Iyer (capt), 5 Tilak Varma, 6 Naman Dhir, 7 Nitish Kumar Reddy, 8 Axar Patel, 9 Bhuvneshwar Kumar, 10 Prince Yadav, 11 Arshdeep Singh.
New Zealand: 1 Finn Allen, 2 Tim Seifert (wk), 3 Bevon Jacobs, 4 Glenn Phillips, 5 Daryl Mitchell, 6 Michael Bracewell, 7 Mitchell Santner (capt), 8 Matthew Fisher, 9 Kyle Jamieson, 10 Adam Milne, 11 Jacob Duffy.
