IND vs NZ, Lucknow Weather and Pitch Report: Check the weather forecast and pitch report for Sunday’s T20I match between India and New Zealand

Team India will be aiming to bounce back when they host New Zealand in the second T20I on January 29. The Kiwis had outplayed Hardik Pandya and Co in the first game on Friday. With the series on the line, India will have to bat much better than they did in the last game. India’s top 3, Shubman Gill, Rahul Tripathi and Ishan Kishan, could not contribute much with the bat.

Although Suryakumar Yadav and Washington Sundar burnished their T20 credentials in the first game, India will not win if the openers cannot provide a solid start. Arshdeep Singh and Umran Malik were too expensive in the first match. Hardik Pandya-led Team India has its task cut out ahead of the second game. On the other hand, New Zealand would like to clinch a win on Sunday and script a rare series victory on Indian soil.
