India vs New Zealand Prediction & Tips 2026

Surya Kumar Yadav had a decent start to the series as he scored 32 off 22 balls. Regardless of his performance, he has been inconsistent in the last 12 months and we believe he will score low in the upcoming game.

Rachin Ravindra has been solid for New Zealand in T20 format as he has scored 309 runs with an average of 30.90 in 2025. Even though he struggled in the last game, we expect him to bounce back and do well in the upcoming game.
