Golden Chance for India to win Maiden T-2O Series in New Zealand

In every Professional game, there is one thing common which is Pressure. The difference between victory and defeat could be just an inch or the 100th of a second. The margins are small. New Zealand versus India T20I series tied it at 1-1 going into the final game in Hamilton, it would come down to which team handles the fine lines of nerves and pressure at crucial junctures better.

In the first T20I, Blackcaps beat India by the biggest run margin, while the tourists returned the favor in the second one with a clinical win. Despite winning the second game, the Indian camp might think to do some change in the team. After misfiring in the first game, India's batting too clicked. Rohit Sharma returning to form after a string of low scores would gladden the Indian think tank.

On the other hand, New Zealand would hope not to repeat the mistake they did in the second T20. Tim Seifert was mostly cramped for room and the lower order couldn't accelerate. The only silver lining was the Colin de Grandhomme inning who played with audacity.

The previous T20I here between England and New Zealand in February 2018 produced 386 runs, with Munro blasting an 18-ball half-century.
