IND v NZ Match Preview:<\/h3>\r\n\r\n
India had a horror start to their first match in the Super 12 stage against arch-rivals Pakistan, where Indians were handed a 10-wicket defeat. In this match, apart from Skipper Virat Kohli, none of the other batters were able to stand their crease and face the Pakistani bowlers. A lot of hopes ride on the batting gems like KL Rahul, Rohit Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav. It'd be interesting to see if Ishan Kishan who's in red hot form gets a place in the playing XI or not. <\/p>\r\n\r\n
Indian bowling attack needs to strike back after they were unable to take a single wicket against Pakistan. Experienced bowlers like Mohammad Shami & Jasprit Bumrah may come out with all guns blazing in this all important match. Bhuvneshwar Kumar who has been out of touch for a long time may be replaced by all-rounder Shardul Thakur. In the spin department, it's still unclear who will play with Jadeja, though it's possible Varun Chakravarthy is given a place in the XI to get his rhytm in this T20 World Cup.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
New Zealand is also coming in with a defeat against Pakistan in their first match in the Super 12 stage. NZ batters had a good start but weren't able to score big and ended up chipping in with small scores. Although, NZ batting lineup - Martin Guptill, Daryl Mitchell, Kane Williamson, James Neesham, Devon Conway & Glenn Phillips - are capable of smashing bowlers around the park. <\/p>\r\n\r\n
New Zealand bowling attack which is led by the dangerous experienced duo - Trent Boult & Tim Southee - didn't look as effective as their potential against Pakistan. However, Boult & Southee, accompanied by Neesham, Santner & Sodhi can trouble Indian batters.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

BOULT FOR THE BLUES \u27a2 Trent Boult will be that threat against NZ and Rohit Sharma has been dismissed 3 times by him in T20 cricket. Rahul and Kohli though have fared well, scoring at 195 and 143 respectively against Boult without getting out often.<\/a>
