Delhi: The first match of the three-match Test series between India and New Zealand will be played in Bengaluru from Wednesday. Team India had recently defeated Bangladesh, while New Zealand had to face defeat against Sri Lanka. This series is very important for New Zealand from the ICC World Test Championship point of view. However, full five-day play at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium does not seem possible. The main reason for this is the weather and there is a possibility of rain in Bengaluru, which can create problems for both the teams.

Let us tell you that the probability of rain in the first two days is around 40 percent, and the humidity level will be around 98 percent. Due to 100 percent cloudy sky on October 16, the temperature can reach 26 degrees. However, the drainage system of Chinnaswamy Stadium is quite good, so there will not be much problem if there is less rain, but if there is continuous rain, then the match can be affected. It is possible that a few overs of play may be disrupted in two days, but the possibility of the entire day's play being washed out is less.

What did the head coach of the Indian team say about New Zealand?

At the same time, it will not be easy for India to defeat New Zealand in the Test series. Team coach Gautam Gambhir accepted this and said, “New Zealand's challenge is completely different. There are many good batsmen in their team, who can put us in trouble. We have to respect them, but we are not afraid of anyone. We have to be ready from the first ball. It is the responsibility of the support staff to keep the players prepared for every situation.”
