The first T20 International between New Zealand and the West Indies promises an exciting start to the five-match series. After a frustrating 1-0 defeat in a rain-hit series against England, New Zealand will aim to bounce back on home soil.
The match will be streamed live on the SonyLIV and FanCode apps and their respective websites, where fans can follow the complete scorecard and commentary in real time.
New Zealand recently lost a brief three-match series to England by a 1-0 margin after two matches were washed out, giving the English side the edge. This series offers New Zealand a valuable chance to regain momentum.
The West Indies, meanwhile, enter the contest following a clean 3-0 sweep over Bangladesh. However, their earlier 2-1 loss to Nepal exposed some inconsistency in their T20 performance.
"New Zealand have the perfect team to get their T20I form back on track against a West Indies side that can be unpredictable."
The clash will be available on Indian television channels partnering with Sony Sports Network, ensuring viewers have multiple ways to tune in live.
