IND vs NZ 1st T20 Match Live Cricket Streaming Online: Suryakumar Yadav’s India face Mitchell Santner’s New Zealand in the 1st T20I at the Vidharbha Cricket Association Stadium in Nagpur. Suryakumar himself will be in focus the most due to his sagging form with the bat and with the T20 World Cup in the horizon. Since becoming captain after India’s victorious 2024 T20 World Cup campaign, Suryakumar has hardly been able to live up to the kind of consistency he showed before that which had made him arguably the best T20 batter in the world. While his initial downturn in late 2024 was followed by some incredible success in the 2025 Indian Premier League (IPL), SKY’s international form continued sagging in the series that he played after that. In 2025, Suryakumar scored just 218 runs 19 T20I innings at a strike rate of 123.16 and average of just 13.62. It was the first time in his career that he struck at less than 150 in a calendar year. Also in focus will be Hardik Pandya, who has been in incredibly good touch, particularly with the bat since his return from injury last year.
