PREVIEW: Team India (IND) is all set to play against New Zealand (NZ) for the first Test match of the three matches of the series set to commence on October 16 at M. Chinnaswamy Cricket Stadium in Bengaluru. It is a series with big consequences for the ultimate World Test Championship as Rohit Sharma and his men aim to seal the qualification spot for the third straight finals.
The Men in Blue are heading to this game after a strong series win over Bangladesh, where the magnificent performances across the board allowed them to complete a 2-0 win. The Chennai Test showcased the team's resilience. In Kanpur, India showed they could easily play against bowling lineup. Rohit Sharma and team will be making their way as favorites and attempt to make sure all their players are in great form ahead of the much anticipated and historic Border Gavaskar Trophy in Australia.
In contrast, New Zealand is making their way to this game after a tough few months in Test cricket. New Zealand have seen a defeat in the two-match Test series against Sri Lanka without being too competitive in either game. Before that, New Zealand was defeated by the Australian team at home a few months back. New Zealand are in a period of transition but still have a huge talent and are a good unit. In addition, this side still has players that can test India.
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 couldn't score runs.
