India and New Zealand clash in the 4th T20I of their five-match series at the ACA-VDCA Stadium in Visakhapatnam, with India already holding a 3–0 lead after commanding wins in the first three games.
The hosts have dominated with both bat and ball, posting strong totals and chasing comfortably, and will be keen to extend that momentum while fine-tuning combinations ahead of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026.
With Visakhapatnam’s conditions known to be batting friendly yet offering some assistance to spinners later on, India’s balance of power hitters and tweakers gives them a clear edge.
New Zealand, however, arrive desperate for a breakthrough and a win to reignite confidence after being outplayed so far. The Kiwis will be looking to regroup with strategic tweaks and disciplined execution, aiming to blunt India’s explosive batting lineup

The Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam is expected to offer a batter-friendly surface for the India vs New Zealand 4th T20I, with conditions that allow stroke play right from the start and support high totals if teams bat intelligently.
The pitch tends to be flat and firm with true bounce, helping batters play through the line, while the size of the boundaries can make run-scoring easier on a good day. Spinners may also come into play in the middle overs as the surface slows slightly, but overall big scores are definitely on the cards at this venue. Dew later in the evening could also aid the chasing side if conditions stay consistent.
