India National Cricket Team vs New Zealand National Cricket Team Players: India's star batter, Ishan Kishan, who has been in top form in the ongoing series, is sitting out the 4th T20I against New Zealand due to a slight niggle, and Arshdeep Singh has replaced him in the playing XI. 

India captain Suryakumar Yadav won the toss and opted to bowl first against New Zealand in their 4th T20I of the five-match series at the ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam on Wednesday.

Suryakumar Yadav revealed at the toss that Kishan had picked up the injury, leading to Arshdeep Singh's inclusion in the playing XI. India lead the five-match series 3-0.

India captain said at the time of toss, "We’re going to bowl first. It looks like a good wicket, and we’ll get a chance to practise here later. There was a lot of dew last night and today it’s a little humid as well, so we feel that in the second innings the ball will come onto the bat nicely. I think the important thing is to repeat the good habits we’ve built over the past year, not just in this series. We want to keep doing the good things we’ve been doing, learn from the last game, and go out there, enjoy ourselves, play the format the way it’s meant to be played, and entertain the people who’ve come here."

"It’s a beautiful ground and a lovely crowd here. Hopefully, the boys are charged up and we have a good, entertaining night. Arshdeep comes in for Ishan Kishan, who picked up a niggle in the last game. Axar Patel still needs a bit more time, so hopefully we’ll see him in the next game. The batters will need to take a bit more responsibility, but at the same time not shy away from playing with fearless intent. We’ve got five good bowling options today, so we’ll see how it goes," he added.
