ABOUT THE MATCH
India will play against New Zealand in its 2nd T20I match, which is scheduled on January 26th, 2020 at Eden Park, Auckland, New Zealand.
Currently, Team India is in full form after defeating the Kiwis in the first T20I game and they will look to continue the same momentum in the next game too.
On the other hand, New Zealand is struggling a bit. There’s no doubt about their batting strength but when it comes to bowling they are unable to pull it off. That’s the only area where the Kiwis need to improve.
