Just 1 mistake and it's game over! The last T20 of the season may not be the last of 3 youngsters

IND vs NZ | The third and last match of the T20 series between India and New Zealand (India vs New Zealand, T20I) is to be played at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. The series is equal to one each. In such a situation, whoever wins this match from the team of Hardik Pandya and Mitchell Santner will also capture the series. Captain Hardik Pandya would like to win this match at any cost. His series win record in this format is 100% till now. He would not want to make any mistake. A small mistake can be heavy not only for him but also for the team.

Last chance to make the team!

After the Ahmedabad T20 match, the Indian team will not play any T20 international match for the next five months. According to the cricket calendar released so far, India will play Test and ODI series against Australia in February-March. After this IPL is to be organized in April-May. The final of the World Test Championship will be played in June. After this, in July-August, the Indian team will visit the West Indies, where Test, ODI and T20 matches will be played. It would not be wrong to say that the last T20 match against New Zealand is going to be the last match of the season in this format.

International career of three cricketers at stake

During this match, the career of three young cricketers of India is at stake. Ishaan Kishan and Shubman Gill may have been successful in ODIs but they have been flopping continuously in T20 format. A total of five T20 matches were played in January. Ishaan Kishan was a flop in all. Similar was the condition of Shubman Gill. Gill has made his debut in T20 International in January itself. Despite being a flop in Hardik Pandya's team, he has been given continuous opportunities but he has not been able to prove himself. In such a situation, a small mistake can put a whole lot on the T20 career of both.

Similar is the condition of Rahul Tripathi as well. This explosive batsman was rewarded for his brilliant performance in IPL and domestic cricket. Rahul Tripathi also got a chance to debut in the T20 series against Sri Lanka but he could not prove himself. He is playing in the team at number-3 in place of Virat Kohli. To secure his place at this place, there was a need to score a lot of runs, but he has so far failed to even play an average innings.
