When India plays New Zealand in the second Twenty20 International on
Sunday, the young Indian team looking for some playing time will likely
face heavy resistance from New Zealand. Bhuvneshwar Kumar meets the
difficult job of being relevant in the shortest format. After having the
first game of the series in Wellington called off owing to bad weather, the
Indian team must be itching to play in the park, which features the most
breathtaking scenery of the entire tour.
In a twist of fate, the area around the stadium is called “Bay of Plenty,”
and the Indian cricket community currently has a lot to think about in
terms of how to approach the Twenty20 format.
Even though the Bay Oval venue is shorter in length than the Sky Stadium,
the Indian team will need to adapt because the Bay Oval ground has more
significant side limits and is an open ground rather than Wellington’s
closed stadium design.
