The long-awaited Chappell-Hadlee T20i series begins on Wednesday October 1, New Zealand welcoming Australia to Bay Oval in Mount Maunganui. The two teams treat this as a crucial general rehearsal for the T20 World Cup planned in India and Sri Lanka next year. Michael Bracewell will lead an exhausted New Zealand team, while Mitchell Marsh Australia arrives in Tauranga with a strong form but some setbacks.
New Zealand vs News Team News
New Zealand has undergone a blow with the absence of Rachin Ravira, which underwent unpleasant facial laceration during the practice of implementation after colliding with a boundary hob. The young Allrounder needed stitches and was excluded from the series, Jimmy Neesham written as a replacement. The hosts also lack regular names like Kane Williamson, Mitchell Santner, Finn Allen, Adam Milne and Lockie Ferguson, who puts additional responsibility on Devon Conway and Daryl Mitchell.
Australia also has their share of problems. Glenn Maxwell was excluded after fracturing his arm during training, while this series also marks his first T20i release since the retirement of Mitchell Starc. However, with Tim David, Travis Head and Josh Hazlewood in shape, visitors remain formidable opponents.
