India vs New Zealand Top Batters
Abhishek Sharma to be India’ top batter
Abhishek Sharma did not have a great game in the last outing regardless we are going to back him once again as he has been the standout batter for India in this format which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Glenn Phillips to be New Zealand’ top batter
Glenn Phillips had a decent outing in the last game as he scored 19 off 13 balls, Phillips was sensational in the opening game as he scored 78 off 40 balls which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
India vs New Zealand Top Bowlers
Varun Chakravarthy to be India’ top bowler
Varun Chakravarthy was expensive in the last game but that doesn’t change the fact he has been the standout bowler in this format and has bagged three wickets in two games which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Jacob Duffy to be New Zealand’ top bowler
Jacob Duffy has been the shining light in what has been a dismal bowling display by New Zealand. He has been brilliant in the first two games and has the best bowling figures in both games which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
