Preview

At the M. Chinnaswamy Cricket Stadium in Bengaluru, the first Test match of the three series matches between Team (IND vs NZ) is scheduled to start on October 16. The series has significant implications for the last World Test Championship, as Rohit Sharma and his team look to secure a position in the finals for the third consecutive year.

The Men in Blue are coming into this match fresh off a convincing series victory against Bangladesh, where they finished with a 2-0 thumping thanks to outstanding performances from all players. The team demonstrated its tenacity in the Chennai Test. The hosts in Kanpur demonstrated their ability to effortlessly control a bowling attack. In order to ensure that all of its players are in outstanding form before the highly anticipated and historic Border Gavaskar Trophy down under, Rohit Sharma and company will be establishing themselves as favourites.

On the other hand, following a difficult few months in Test cricket, New Zealand is working their way to this match. Despite playing both games with little competition, the Black Caps lost the two-match Test series against Sri Lanka. Prior to it, the Australian team had defeated the Kiwi team at home a few months prior. Despite their current state of change, the Kiwis are a formidable team with a wealth of potential. Furthermore, the hosts can still be tested by this side’s weaponry.

Pitch Report

Chinnaswamy Stadium is known to be a batter's paradise. The stadium has made a name for favouring the batters. However, the last time India played a red-ball game here at this venue was in 2022 against Sri Lanka. It was a one-sided game as India posted 500+ runs in both innings combined, but the visitors struggled for runs.
