New Zealand has won the toss and decided to bat first in India's opening match of the ICC World T20 in Nagpur today.
After losing the toss, captain MS Dhoni said, "We're not too concerned about bowling first, it looks like an ideal batting wicket and one which will not change much through the course of the match. A perfect 50/50 pitch."
As per the reports coming from the middle of the pitch by analysts, the pitch is a batting paradise, and will gradually help the spinners as the match progresses.
India has left out the likes of Harbhajan Singh from their team, as Ravichandran Ashwin starts ahead of him.
It's all left to the action in the middle now!
