India vs New Zealand, 1st T20I: Match abandoned due to rain — IND v NZ Squad, Weather Forecast and Cricket LIVE Stream

India vs New Zealand, 1st T20 International, India tour of New Zealand 2022, LIVE Streaming: The tour-opening T20 International between New Zealand and India was abandoned due to rain on 18 November, Friday. India have arrived in New Zealand after receiving a sound thrashing from England in the semifinal of the recently-concluded T20 World Cup, but with a squad laden with young fresh legs and stand-in head coach VVS Laxman, fans will hope to see a spring in the steps of the team.

Laxman gave a hint of what can be expected, when he said that India will be looking to pack the side with T20 specialists as it seeks course correction after yet another World Cup failure. So, Indian cricket fans will hope to see the likes of Sanju Samson and Umran Malik make the most of the opportunities.
