After a long fight till the last over on the famous Lucknow pitch, India will repeat the victory in Ahmedabad today. The series tied at 1-1 can be won by the winner today. In the last game, India reduced the visitors to 99 runs for eight wickets and reached the target in 19.5 overs. Suryakumar Yadav’s highest score was 26 runs in a match where the top order failed again.
It is expected that Captain Hardik will have the courage to try Prithvi Shah in place of Shubman Gill, who has failed in both Twenty20s. Prithvi Shah, who appeared in the national jersey for the last time in 2021, was full of impressive performances in domestic cricket. Ishan Kishan and Rahul Tripathi also failed in the last game. It is suggested that Ishaan Kishan and Prithvi Shah will be the opening pair.
At the same time, New Zealand will aim to topple India and win the title. India has lost a series in children’s cricket only to Australia and South Africa before on home soil.
Both the teams reckon that instead of the Lucknow pitch, which did not produce any sixes, they can produce a better batting performance in Ahmedabad.
