India and New Zealand face off in the T20 World Cup 2026 final with a competitive history across ICC tournaments. India leads in overall T20I matches at Ahmedabad, including a dominant 168-run win over New Zealand in 2023. However, India has yet to win against New Zealand in T20 World Cup matches. Since 2019, both teams have been evenly matched in ICC knockouts, each securing two wins in major finals and semi-finals. Varun Chakravarthy's notable wicket-taking streak adds to India's strengths.
