India T20I Record in Raipur: If these two greats perform in Raipur T20I, India’s 2-0 lead is confirmed! Know the record of Team India
New Delhi. Team India’s spirits are high after winning the first T20 International match against New Zealand. India defeated New Zealand by 48 runs in Nagpur. Abhishek Sharma and Rinku Singh played stormy innings with the bat and took the team to a huge score of 238 runs, after which the Indian bowlers performed brilliantly and restricted New Zealand to within 200 runs. India will now look to take a 2-0 lead by winning the second T20 match to be held in Raipur. Let us know what is India’s record in the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium of Raipur.
How is the record of Team India?
India’s win percentage on Raipur ground is 100. Actually, here India has played the only T20 International match, in which it won. This match was played against Australia in 2023. India registered this victory under the captaincy of Suryakumar Yadav. Batting first, Team India had scored 174 runs. In reply, Australia’s batsmen could reach only 154 runs. There was a strong performance in this match by two players, who are also part of the team in the current series. If these two players play in the upcoming match then India’s victory will be almost certain.

These two stars created a stir
In that match, Rinku Singh and Akshar Patel played important roles in India’s victory. Rinku had played a stormy innings of 46 runs, while Akshar Patel had destroyed three Kangaroo batsmen with the magic of his spin. Both these players will create havoc against New Zealand also. Rinku is in great form. In the first T20, he played an unbeaten inning of 44 runs in 20 balls, which included three sixes and four fours. However, there is doubt regarding Akshar Patel, who got injured while bowling the match.
Eyes on Ishaan-Samson
They will take the field to maintain their winning streak in the second T20 International match, in which the role of Sanju Samson and Ishan Kishan in the top order will also be in focus. Samson and Kishan could not show any magic with the bat in Nagpur. Samson has been in and out of the playing eleven recently, but now he will definitely get a longer chance before the T20 World Cup to be held next month.
Samson, who lost his wicket easily in the first match of the series, will be determined to present a brilliant example of his variety of shots on the basis of which he has scored three centuries in the shortest format. Another batsman who needs to justify the team management’s faith is Kishan, who has been included in the squad for the World Cup and was given preference over Shreyas Iyer in the first match in Nagpur.
Before the ICC tournament, all eyes were on the form of captain Suryakumar Yadav and even though he could not make any major contribution, the 32 runs scored in 22 balls must have boosted his confidence to some extent. While the impressive win in the first T20 revealed many areas for individual improvement, the team’s performance nonetheless sends alarming signals to its rivals ahead of the World Cup, where India are heading into the season as defending champions.
Both the teams are as follows:
India: Suryakumar Yadav (captain), Abhishek Sharma, Sanju Samson (wicketkeeper), Ishan Kishan, Shreyas Iyer, Hardik Pandya, Shivam Dubey, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Varun Chakraborty, Rinku Singh, Arshdeep Singh, Ravi Bishnoi, Harshit Rana.
New Zealand: Mitchell Santner (captain), Devon Conway, Bevan Jacobs, Daryl Mitchell, Glenn Phillips, Tim Robinson, Jimmy Neesham, Ish Sodhi, Jack Fowles, Mark Chapman, Michael Bracewell, Rachin Ravindra, Kyle Jamieson, Matt Henry, Jacob Duffy.
