Death, taxes, and India bagging yet another bilateral series at home are 3 constants in life. This is India’s 13th ODI series win at home since the start of 2016, and if not for a freakish inning by Ashton Turner in Mohali in 2019, this would have been India’s 14th consecutive series win at home. Meanwhile, they also created a record by winning 7th consecutive series at home. The previous streak was 6 series wins between 2009-11.
India has maintained the same streak in bilaterals in t20is. Apart from the Asia cup and t20 wc debacle it's impossible to get past India in this format, especially in the bilaterals. Since the 2021 t20 wc, India has played 11 bilateral series and won 10 of them with one series drawn at 2-2 against SA. The last time NZ was in India for a t20 series, India defeated them by 3-0.

Dependable Picks for Rario D3 Predictions
Batter 1 & 2- Devon Conway
A top-order pick must be your blind pick in d3.club. Hence, our best punt from the NZ Camp is Devon Conway. He averages close to 50 in t20is with 9 half centuries with a career-best of 99. He got a 140-odd in the last ODI and is coming into the series with good form. And he didn’t disappoint as he ended up scoring 52 off 35 balls in the 1st t20i and gave NZ a solid start.
The other pick is a no-brainer - the ICC Men’s t20i cricketer of the year and the no 1 t20 batter in ICC rankings.
He has 3 t20i 100s and the best SR for a batter with a minimum of 1000 t20i runs. After a disappointing ODI series, he was back among the runs and narrowly missed out on a half-century. He struggled against the left-arm spin of Mitchell Santner which could be again proven as his Achilles heel in the 2nd t20i.
Bowler 1 and 2- Michael Bracewell and Umran Malik
Umran had the most no of wkts in middle overs for a pace bowler in the last season of the Indian t20 league. Must pick in your d3.club though he was bowled only 1 over in the last game.
The last time Bracewell played t20is for NZ he was their most economical bowler in the Banglawash series. He didn’t concede a single six in 5 games and his t20i eco is just a touch above 5. Along with that, he’ll fetch important points in the batting department as well. He proved his worth in this format yet another time by giving away runs less than 8 rpo and picked 2 important wkts in Ishan Kishan and Pandya.
Last 2 picks- Washington Sundar and Glen Phillips
Phillips has been in outstanding form this year in white-ball cricket which earned him a spot in the ICC men's t20i team of the year. He scored a 100 and a quickfire 60 in the t20 wc. He has 2 t20i 100s.
One more candidate in the NZ Squad who can't be ignored is Mitchell Santner. The issue most Indian batter face while facing left-arm spin is not new and barring Kishan there is no left-hander on the side. He also contributed with a 50 in 1st ODI and gave away just 11 runs and picked up 2 crucial wkts. Should have won the player of the match award instead of Daryl Mitchell who is another good pick considering his form in the last match.
Sundar has improved his batting leaps and bounds in the past 12 months. Every time he comes out to bat in Indian colors he contributes heavily and at a quicker rate. He is also an economical bowler who bowls mostly in powerplay thus which could fetch us plenty of points in both departments in the d3.club
Match Prediction for Rario D3 Predictions
In all likeliness, India will come back harder and level the series 1-1.
It was the pitch at Ranchi which didn’t suit our game batting 2nd and some mistakes in the death overs which proved costly at the end.
