Decider at Kanpur today
If the series opener was about New Zealand's adaptability - they bumped Colin Munro to the top and launched the sweep-happy Tom Latham in the middle order - then the second match was about India's bouncebackability. This now means India and New Zealand will square off in an ODI series decider for the second time in two years—this time at Kanpur's Green Park Stadium, which will be hosting its first ever 50-over game under lights.
Last year, on October 29, India picked three specialist spinners on a slow turner in Visakhapatnam, where New Zealand capsized to 79 all out from 63 for 2. What will Kanpur throw up this October 29?
