The first Test between India and New Zealand begins the Kiwis 2024 Tour of India all set to begin with a three test match series on October 16, 2024. Continuing, the first Test is scheduled at M.Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru and then followed by the Pune and Mumbai Tests. In this series, both sides are looking for positive outcomes. That holds more so for India in the World Test Championship where points are increasingly becoming important. India comes to the Test series on the back of a 2-0 series against Bangladesh and in high spirits.
Given that the WTC final is on the horizon, Team India is aiming to carry the winning momentum into the three-match Test series against the Black Caps. Team India under captain Rohit Sharma will face the top ranked Kiwi side in the WTC standings and the guests will be willing to redeem themselves. With the tie breaking points picture at the back of the head, there is plenty of give and take that is expected from the India vs New Zealand test series ahead. Back in the country, the series began and the captain of the winning team was Morit Yerman Pakistan. Kumara Tamas will start the Test series against cross seamer Bruce Mire who for the Kiwis will be the new captain.
The contests will be tough considering the fact that, given the fact that it is the home ground and also the current form of the team, India is likely to win more.
