As suggested by Pandya on the eve of the series, [Prithvi Shaw](http://www.espncricinfo.com/player/prithvi-shaw-1070168)didn't make a direct comeback into the XI: the team management went with [Shubman Gill](http://www.espncricinfo.com/player/shubman-gill-1070173)and [Ishan Kishan](http://www.espncricinfo.com/player/ishan-kishan-720471)as openers. Jacob Duffy, Blair Tickner and Lockie Ferguson were their quicks. [Kuldeep Yadav](https://www.espncricinfo.com/player/kuldeep-yadav-559235)into their T20I XI after an excellent comeback in ODIs and Tests, which meant legspinner Yuzvendra Chahal sat out.

We knew it was spinning in the powerplay and it was nice to chip one out. I was trying to get it to skid on a little bit (Ishan Kishan's wicket) it's one of those ones, nice to pick up a wicket early in the innings and as a bowling unit, we were able to capitalize on that start. Santner ( 4-1-11-2) was the pick of the New Zealand bowlers and the skipper was well supported by his spin partners. But it was a great game and it was pretty tight at the end, we saw a lot of runs in the ODI series and it was nice to see the ball spin a bit more. It was nice to chip away some wickets in the powerplay and we had troubled doing that in the ODIs. In an era of match ups, Santner got his spot on and India were rocked early as they were 15 for 3; Bracewell accounted for the left handed Kishan, Duffy sent back Tripathi and Santner outfoxed the right handed Gill. SKY and Hardik steadied the innings and brought India back into the contest by the halfway mark, but the pair departed in successive overs and left the lower order with too much to do. There was a little bit of moisture out there towards the end, probably not as much as we were expecting. Player of the Match: It is nice to contribute to a score which helps us win a game. It is nice to take some momentum into the rest of the T20 series. It was my job to build a partnership and then take the onus on myself after Conway's departure. India would put this as one of their off days for the batters and look to come back strongly in the next game.

Images from the first T20 International between India and New Zealand, in Ranchi, on Friday.

Conway used the slog-sweep and his feet to pick up boundaries off Kuldeep and Hooda as New Zealand crossed the 100-mark in the 13th over. Hardik brought himself back and tried to mix his bowling, using more cutters and slower deliveries as New Zealand reached 79 for 2 in 10 overs. While Allen paid the price for his daredevilry as after a six he tried to repeat the shot, only to be caught by Suryakumar Yadav at deep midwicket, Chapman was done in by a flatter delivery with Sundar taking the catch after diving full length to his right. When Blair Tickner was introduced, he played a square cut and then sent another one through backward point for successive fours as India reached 74 for 3 in 10 overs. The Kiwi bowlers, led by Santner (2/11) and Bracewell (2/31), then spun a web around the home batters, to restrict India to 155 for 9 in 20 overs. Devon Conway and Daryl Mitchell scored fluent fiery half-centuries before Mitchell Santner and Michael Bracewell played a leading hand with the ball as New Zealand trounced India by 21 runs in the first T20 International, in Ranchi on Friday, to take a 1-0 lead in the three-match series.

India had a disastrous start to their chase with both Ishan Kishan (4) and Rahul Tripathi (0) sent back to the pavillion by the third over.

Popular gadgets including laptop, tablet and mobile specifications, features, prices, comparison. Among others, Suryakumar Yadav and Washington Sundar shone with the bat scoring 47 and 50 runs respectively. Will always back this. Have always been saying this. [January 27, 2023] On the eve of the series opener in Ranchi, India’s interim T20I captain Hardik Pandya announced that Ishan Kishan and Shubman Gill will play as the openers. So he should get the opportunity first. However, he failed to get a place in the opening T20I as India preferred to go with in-form opener Shubman Gill. Young opener Prithvi Shaw has returned to the national team after a long time thanks to his impressive show in the domestic circuit.
