5th T20I: Axar, Ishan, Varun Return As India Elect To Bat First Against New Zealand
Greenfield International Stadium: Vice-captain Axar Patel, wicketkeeper-batter Ishan Kishan and wrist-spinner Varun Chakravarthy return as India won the toss and elected to bat first against New Zealand in the fifth and final T20I at the Greenfield International Stadium on Saturday.
The match is India’s final international game before the Men's T20 World Cup begins on February 7. After winning the toss, skipper Suryakumar Yadav also said local lad Sanju Samson retains his place in the playing eleven, which left the capacity crowd overjoyed.
“We were here last night. There were a lot of dew. So we want to test our bowlers if we're good defending the total. It's a good wicket. We had a good session last night and the curator said it's going to play true for the next 40 overs. Don't worry Thiruvananthapuram, Sanju Samson is playing tonight.
