The stage is set for a thrilling encounter and cricket lovers are in for a treat. Fact: Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Stadium in Lucknow has hosted a total of 5 T20Is till now and the team batting first have won all of the 5 matches. So don't get surprised if the toss-winning team opts to bat first at this venue. Hardik Pandya (India Captain): "Yeah we were also thinking to bat first but yeah bowling is also fine. Looking forward to this game there can't be anything more challenging in a bilateral series. We will make errors and we will grow from them. We have one change today Yuzi comes in for Umran." Mitchell Santner (New Zealand Captain): "We will bat first. The stats say that chasing is challenging here. It was nice to bounce back after a tough One Day series. Different guys stepping up at different times. It's never easy to beat India at home. There were times when we thought we were ahead of the game but they bounced back with the partnership between Surya and Hardik. The boundaries here are big and nice for a spinner. We are going with the same team." Pitch Report (Danny Morrison & Ajit Agarkar): "One of the bigger grounds in India. 77m today for the straight hit 69m square on one side 67m on the other. It has a garish appearance. It has red dirt similar to Mumbai. The hitter won't have time if there is grip or movement off the pitch since it will happen quickly. An acceptable pitch. If there isn't any dew it could be challenging to bat on this wicket for the team batting second." Audio Content Disclaimer For This Content This is self-created content and not copied content.
