When India take on New Zealand on Wednesday, it will also be the farewell match for another Delhi boy Ashish Nehra, who has decided to hang up his boots. India will like to give him a victorious-sendoff by registering their maiden T20I win over the Kiwis.
India have never beaten NZ in a T20I in five matches between the two teams so far.
