There is a good chance India will go in with three spinners - Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, and R Ashwin. Mohammad Siraj and Ishant Sharma are likely to be the two seamers. 

New Zealand might go in with Rachin Ravindra, who can also add a spin option in the playing XI. Kane Williamson and Ross Taylor will be back in the middle order. Will Young could also make his way into the XI. 

Mitchell Santner will be the go-to spinner along with Ajaz Patel. Neil Wagner will accompany Kyle Jamieson with the new ball.
