Shreyas Iyer leads India while Mitchell Santner captains New Zealand. With both squads confirmed, several bowlers stand out as key figures to follow across the five matches.
Here are top 3 bowlers to watch out for in NZ vs IND T20I series:
1. Arshdeep Singh
Arshdeep Singh has taken 145 wickets in 99 T20I matches, making him one of the most experienced T20I bowlers in the current India setup. The left-arm pacer is confirmed in India's squad for this series. In the most recent T20I series before this tour, which was against West Indies, Arshdeep took five wickets across five matches. His ability to pick up wickets consistently across a series makes him a bowler to watch closely in New Zealand conditions.
