IND vs NZ 3rd T20I LIVE Score: Suryakumar Yadav's India eye series win in Guwahati; Sanju Samson's form a concern

IND Vs NZ 2nd T20 Cricket Match LIVE Score: Having won the first two T20Is, the Indian team would be eyeing for a series win on Sunday when they take on New Zealand in the third game at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati. If Abhishek Sharma and Rinku Singh did the star turn for India in the first game, captain Suryakumar Yadav returned back to form and Ishan Kishan made a grand comeback in the second game.

With the T20 World Cup 2026 round the corner, India won't mind rotating the players with three more games to go to fine-tune their preparations before the mega event. On the other hand, New Zealand were left looking for answers in both the games. They failed to chase 190 in the first game before being blown away by Surya-Kishan carnage in the second.
