India and New Zealand are going to play the last T20I of the series on 1st February 2023. Team India led by Hardik Pandya managed to win the second T20I to bring the series to a decider. A lot will be riding on the match as it may be the last chance for certain players to make their mark feel in the shortest format of the game. Here we have covered three players who are the best candidates to win player of the match award in the 3rd T20I.
1- Shubman Gill
The star Indian opener stunned the world with a double century in the ODI series. However, he is yet to make his mark in the shortest format of the game. Gill has failed in both 1st and 2nd T20I but his failures have been alluded to the pitch conditions by the skipper Hardik Pandya. Ahmedabad Stadium has been a batting paradise and Shubman Gill can be the one to guide India towards a comforting victory with a long inning.
2- Devon Conway
The Kiwi opener is one of the most consistent batters in the cricket world right now. Yet he has not managed to bat with utter consistence in the ongoing series against India. Conway will be itching to post a huge score individually to help his team win the match and the series. He is surely going to be a thorn in India’s plan in the 3rd T20I.
3- Suryakumar Yadav
The number 1 T20I batter proved in the last match that he knows how to play according to the conditions. He displayed great sense of responsibility to take India over the line in the 2nd T20I. Suryakumar is scoring hundreds of fun nowadays in T20 cricket and the 3rd T20I can be the ocassion on which he goes all out.
