The schedule of the tour has now been announced, which will commence from 22 October with a five match T20I series. This will be followed by a five match ODI series between the two teams, as the previous idea to extend the series has now been implemented. Fans could watch Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli for more ODIs in this series.
The India tour of New Zealand will conclude with the two match Test series. This will be crucial for the Indian team in the WTC cycle, as it is India's last away series in the same. The tour will be massive, with 12 games across different formats, allowing the Indian team to give its best.
Our Take
The Indian fans are delighted to know that the end of the year will bring packed action for them across different formats. Both the New Zealand Cricket Board and BCCI were looking to extend the ODI series, as it could be the last for Rohit and Virat in the New Zealand soil, and it has now been implemented. The Indian test team will be eager to take revenge of the previous home whitewash against them, as the ODI team will also seek revenge.
