The Men in Blue will look to continue their good run of form when they take on the Black Caps in the upcoming T20I series.
In a month and a half long tour for the Virat Kohli troops, the two teams are scheduled to play three ODIs and two Tests after the five T20Is.
India did exceedingly well recently on home soil where they got the better of South Africa, Bangladesh, West Indies, Sri Lanka and Australia. However, New Zealand on home turf will pose a massive threat to their excellent run, and the tourists will have to be wary of the threat posed by Kane Williamson’s brigade.
