LIVE IND vs NZ, 3rd T20I:India need 161 to win

When Conway and Phillips were batting together, they were 130/2, but as soon as their alliance crumbled, NZ lost ground.

Conway and Phillips took their time but eventually rallied New Zealand with an 86-run stand after Allen and Chapman were sent back inside the powerplay. Both batters reached their respective fifties but were unable to bat out the game. India is the favourite from this position because of the good batting surface and the short square boundaries.

IND vs NZ, 3rd T20I: Tim Southee wins TOSS, NZ bat first

Stand-in captain Tim Southee has won the toss and elected to bat first in the rain-delayed third T20I at McLean Park in Napier on Tuesday.

IND vs NZ: Toss to take place at 12pm

It appears that the Toss will take place at 12pm IST, half an hour delay due to rain in Napier. The game is set to start at around 1230pm IST, instead of original time of 12pm India time. We should not have any loss of over in the third T20I. 

India vs New Zealand: Covers coming off in Napier

Great news from the McLean Park in Napier, as covers have finally come off. The rain has stopped in Napier and ground staff have started working on the pitch and outfield. We should get a full 20-overs game in Napier between India and New Zealand in the 3rd T20I.

IND vs NZ: Deepak Hooda says 'I am a batting all-rounder'

Deepak Hooda, who picked up four wickets in the second T20I with the ball, call himself a 'batting all-rounder'. "I am a batting allrounder so I have to score runs. But I look to contribute with the ball as well. Being an allrounder, I have to perform and I have been working hard with the ball. I have not got enough games and given a chance, I will look to do well. Given a choice I would take the No.5 spot given there are good players at No. 3. It takes time to adapt. I think about my heavy domestic record. I have played at many spots and each spot has its struggles. It is about being a utility player," Hooda tells Harsha Bhogle before the game.

IND vs NZ, 3rd T20: Rain RETURNS at Napier

We don't have great news from McLean Park in Napier as rain is back at Napier. The covers are still on the pitch as former India batter and commentator Ajay Jadeja speaks to Napier groundsman Henry Logan.

LIVE IND vs NZ, 3rd T20I: Suryakumar Yadav to be rested for final T20I?

Former India cricketer Parthiv Patel feels that Suryakumar Yadav should be rested for the third T20I as he is a vital clog in Indian batting going into the three-match ODI series after the final T20I against New Zealand. Suryakumar Yadav is in form of his life and the Indian team should use him only wisely. Sanju Samson can replace him in the middle order.

Live IND vs NZ, 3rd T20: Head to head stats

New Zealand have won important games against India in the ICC events but India has the upper hand in the shortest format of the game when it comes to bilateral series.

Both the teams have played each other twice in neutral conditions, Blackcaps won both games.

LIVE IND vs NZ, 3rd T20I: Will Umran Malik and Sanju Samson make comeback in Team India?

India need to immediately adjust their strategy, but it is still unclear whether players like Umran Malik and Sanju Samson will be put to the test against New Zealand in the third and final T20 on Tuesday. After another World Cup disaster, India was supposed to give a number of players a chance to prove themselves, but if the lineup for the second T20 match is any indicator, they didn't want to start over.

LIVE IND vs NZ, 3rd T20I Weather Report

Tuesday night's weather in Napier is predicted to become cloudy with a chance of rain.
