India vs New Zealand: Among the 20 teams that were playing in the 10th Edition of ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, finally, two teams, India & NZ, have qualified for the final for this year in 2026.
The final match of this tournament will be played on 8 March 2026, at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad.
Team India secured a thrilling 7-run victory over England in the second semifinal to reach the final, and will try to hold this title for a second consecutive time, as India is already holding the title of winner of the 2024 T20 World Cup under the Rohit Sharma captaincy, and also India now has the opportunity to become the first team to win three T20 World Cup titles, moving ahead of both West Indies and England.
On the other side, New Zealand will try very hard to hold on to win this title, as before this team came to the final, but unfortunately lost the final in the 2021 T20 World Cup against Australia.
So, between these two teams, all the Head-to-Head stats and record will play an important role.
So, let’s take a look at who has more wins against each other in both T20 World Cups, with all formats of the T20I tournament.
