Team India will need strong preparation for which it has reached Christchurch.

Team India reached Christchurch:-

Hours after the cancellation of the second ODI in Hamilton, Team India left for Christchurch from Hamilton.

The Indian cricketer along with his spouse left for the Hamilton airport in the team bus and later took a flight to Christchurch.

During this, Yuzvendra Chahal’s wife Dhanashree, and Surya’s wife Devisha have shared pictures related to Team India through their social media accounts.

Meanwhile, India’s ODI captain Shikhar Dhawan was seen taking a selfie with spinner Yuzvendra Chahal and all-rounder Deepak Hooda on a flight to Christchurch.

Black Caps also announced by NZC at Hagley Oval:-

All-rounder Shardul Thakur was seen in a relaxed and fun mood with Mumbai teammate Shreyas Iyer. The New Zealand cricket team is also not far behind. The Black Caps are also on their way to Hagley Oval, as announced by the NZC.

Records-wise, India has never played an ODI at the Hagley Oval in Christchurch. India will play at this venue for the first time on Wednesday.

Their only loss came in 2018 to England. Clearly, New Zealand could not have found a better venue than Christchurch to win the home series against India.

The game is already sold out, as announced by the NZC. Fans are looking forward to seeing it in between with series on the line for both India and New Zealand.

Let history be rewritten for Team India to end the series on a high. There’s no reason why they can’t do it in holy Christchurch on Wednesday.
