The India vs New Zealand Test series will be played across three iconic venues — Bengaluru, Pune, and Mumbai — providing thrilling encounters over the course of October and early November.
The tour will kick off at the historic M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, known for its spin-friendly wicket and lively crowd. India will aim to make a strong start, while New Zealand will look to acclimatise to the conditions early on.
The series will move to Pune, where batters will enjoy the surface in the initial days, but the spinners are expected to play a crucial role as the match progresses. Both teams will try to find their best balance in these challenging conditions.
The final Test will be held at the iconic Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. Known for hosting many memorable matches, Wankhede’s pitch offers pace, bounce, and turn.
