Correspondent, 23 October: The second T20 match between India and New Zealand is scheduled to be played on Saturday at the Hagley Oval ground in Christchurch. With Ishan Kishan ruled out due to injury, Vaibhav Suryavanshi is likely to get an opportunity in this fixture, which cricket fans will also have the option to watch for free.
The match will begin at 12:30 PM Indian Standard Time. Live telecast of the encounter will be carried out on the Sony Sports Network, while mobile and smart TV users can access live streaming on the Sony LIV app. Furthermore, viewers who have a DD Free Dish connection can watch the game completely free of charge on the DD Sports channel.
A major change has taken place in the Indian squad ahead of the second match. According to information provided by the BCCI, Ishan Kishan has suffered an injury and will not be able to play. As a result, Vaibhav Suryavanshi's entry into the team as his replacement is considered certain, giving fans a chance to see his dynamic play in action.
Meanwhile, India achieved a historic victory in the first T20 match by successfully chasing down a massive target of 225 runs. Team India secured that win on the back of a strong half-century from Sanju Samson and aggressive batting by Naman Dhir. However, fast bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar also sustained an injury during that same match.
The BCCI has not yet provided any official information on whether Bhuvneshwar Kumar has recovered from his injury. Consequently, cricket fans are left wondering whether he will participate in the second match.
