India Considers Changes for 3rd T20I Against New Zealand Amid Series LeadPreviousNext

India secured victories in the first two T20I matches against New Zealand and aims to clinch the series with a win in the third match at Wellington. Team management is considering changes, including dropping fast bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar due to expensive bowling spells, and replacing Vaibhav Sooryavanshi with the returning Ishan Kishan, who missed the second match due to injury. Mayank Yadav may also be included to strengthen the bowling lineup, with final decisions depending on player fitness and pitch conditions.
