India National Cricket Team vs New Zealand National Cricket Team Free Live Streaming Online and TV Channel Telecast: Day 1's play of the India vs New Zealand 1st Test 2024 got washed out due to persistent rain at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. India are well ahead in the race to make it to the final of the World Test Championship 2023-25 and this series will be the key for them sealing their place in the final of the potentially tough tour of Australia. Although, India remain confident of their chances to make it anyway under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma. India are a confident side entering the India vs New Zealand series as they have already defeated Bangladesh and England at home this year.

India’s playing XI for the first Test could be similar to that featured against Bangladesh. However, if Shubman Gill is not fully fit then Sarfaraz Khan could make it to the XI. Otherwise, not much change is expected with Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj and Akash Deep to form the pace attack. New Zealand, on the other hand, will be without senior batsman Kane Williamson and Will Young could get a game. It will be interesting to see if New Zealand play three pacers or just two. In case Kiwis play three pacers then Mitchell Santner is likely to sit out with Ajaz Patel to take prime spinner’s role.
