🏏ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026: Final IND vs NZ in Ahmedabad 🏏 - Page 2

Stats and trivia

• Since 2019, New Zealand are 2-2 against India in ICC tournament knockouts. They won the 2019 ODI World Cup semi-final and the World Test Championship final in 2021, but lost the ODI World Cup semi-final in 2023 and the Champions Trophy final last year. The 2000 Champions Trophy final win in Nairobi gives New Zealand the tiebreaker.
• India's win against England in the semi-final was the first time since 2014 that a total was defended successfully in a T20 World Cup knockout match held at night.
• New Zealand haven't won a limited-overs World Cup in either format, losing finals as recently as 2019 (ODI) and 2021 (T20I).
• Rachin has taken 11 wickets in this tournament. Only Trent Boult has taken more - 13 - for New Zealand in a World Cup.
• Varun has taken at least one wicket in his last 21 T20Is. Only Wanindu Hasaranga, Adil Rashid and Sandeep Lamichhane have had longer streaks.

Probable Best Performers

Probable Best Batter: Finn Allen

Opening batter Finn Allen can be the biggest threat to the Indian team on Sunday when he takes his guard to bat. The New Zealand cricketer smashed a record-breaking 33-ball century in the semi-final against South Africa to have everyone in awe of his batting skills. His stroke play is unmatched, and the right-hander holds the ability to get on top of even the best of the bowling attacks in the world. The Indians will come prepared differently against Allen.

Probable Best Bowler: Jasprit Bumrah

Ace pacer Jasprit Bumrah has emerged as the cheat code for skipper Suryakumar in the competition. His spell against England undoubtedly turned the fate of the match in India's favour. Bumrah will be playing in his hometown on Sunday, and he will be hoping to make it a memorable night by bringing out his best against a formidable New Zealand batting unit. Fans will be eager to see how Bumrah goes about his business on Sunday.
