Daniel Vettori is one of the legends of the world cricket and arguably the best spinner New Zealand has ever produced. The left-arm orthodox spinner captained his side in the inaugural edition of the World T20 and took his team to the semi-finals of the tournament. The match against India was one of the encounters which Vettori would always remember in his career.
He took four important wickets by just giving 20 runs. His incredible spell put India on the backfoot and Dhoni & Co. lost the crucial match by ten runs in the end. His useful spell on the flat pitch of Wanderers earned him the Man of the Match trophy.
Now, after the completion of the ODI series on 29th October, both the sides would be looking to dominate each other in the 3-match T20I series that is going to start on 1st November. The first game will take place in Delhi while the next two will be played at Rajkot & Thiruvananthapuram on 4th November & 7th November respectively.
Here are the T20 squads of both the teams:
