India vs New Zealand 2017, 3rd T20I: 5 things India should do to win the decider

Modified Nov 07, 2017 02:57 IST

Kuldeep Yadav has taken 5 wickets in 4 T20I at economy of 7.25 — Kuldeep Yadav has taken five wickets in four T20I matches, at an economy of 7.25

#1 Win toss and bat first

Virat Kohli has batted at no.4 in both T20Is — The team which gets to bats first will have the edge

In the first T20I, India scored 202-3 when put to bat first and won the match by 53 runs. The Kiwis scored 196-2 in the second T20I batting first and won the match by 40 runs.

Teams chasing a big total have often crumbled under pressure, and it would be ideal if India can win the toss, score big in the first innings, and put pressure on the NZ batsmen.

With India's death bowlers Bhuvi and Bumrah in good form, it will not be easy for the NZ batsmen to chase anything above 180.
