IND vs NZ: New Zealand will lock horns against India in the 1st T20I of the New Zealand tour of India, 2023 on Friday, January 27, 2023, at JSCA International Stadium Complex, Ranchi.
Team India white-washed New Zealand in the three-match ODI series and they will strive for a similar outcome in the upcoming T20I series.
However, unlike the ODI series, the Men in Blue will be led by Hardik Pandya in this series as the senior players like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli have been given rest.
Ishan Kishan and Shubman Gill will open for India as captain Pandya confirmed in the press conference earlier on Thursday. Prithvi Shaw will have to wait for his chance.
As for bowling, Arshdeep Singh and Shivam Mavi return to the side. Umran Malik is also likely to feature in the T20I series. All in all, they are the favourites to win this game.
Speaking of New Zealand, Mitchell Santner will lead the team in the absence of regular captain Kane Williamson. Tim Southee and Trent Boult will also miss the series.
Here are the match details, pitch report, probable playing 11, squads, player records/stats and dream11 fantasy team predictions for the 1st T20I of the New Zealand tour of India, 2023.

IND vs NZ Top 5 Players to Pick in Fantasy Team for 1st T20I of New Zealand tour of India, 2023
Suryakumar Yadav
Suryakumar Yadav, despite a lack of runs in the recent ODI series, has been performing exceptionally well in T20Is. He was recently awarded the ICC T20I Player of the Year for his outstanding performances in 2021. He will look to continue his dominance in the shortest format.
Devon Conway
The centurion of the last match looked in great form with the bat and he will look to continue his good run of form in the T20I series as well.
Shubman Gill
He has been in a great touch lately. He recently joined the elite list of double centurions in ODIs. He will look to continue his rich vein of form in the shortest format as well.
Glenn Phillips
He has been a consistent performer for Kiwis lately. He smashed 54 off 33 against India during the last T20I encounter and will look for another majestic show against the Men in Blue.
Arshdeep Singh
The star pacer has returned to the side. He has been one of the most impactful bowlers for India since last year and once again he will hold the bowling impetus for Men in Blue.
