# New Zealand captain Mitchell Santner bowled exceptionally well against India in the first T20I at Ranchi on January 27 conceding eleven runs in his four-over spell. He thus became the first spinner to produce an economy rate of 2.75 twice against India – the first instance being during his career-best bowling spell of 4-0-11-4 at Nagpur on March 15, 2016.
# Thanks to his exceptional performance apart from aggressive knocks by Devon Conway (52) and Daryll Mitchell (59 not out), New Zealand registered their first win in five games vs India in India – their last win was by 40 runs at Rajkot on November 4, 2017.
# Conway, with a fifty and three dismissals, has become the third New Zealand wicketkeeper to post a fifty and effect three dismissals in a T20I – the first two being Brendon McCullum (64 + three dismissals vs Zimbabwe at Harare on October 17, 2011) and Glenn Phillips (56 + 4 dismissals vs West Indies at Nelson on December 29, 2017)
# Daryll Mitchell has produced a strike rate of 196.66 during his unbeaten match-winning knock of 59 – his best strike rate when he posted a fifty-plus in T20Is. Interestingly, the same is now the highest ever by a New Zealand batter vs India in India in T20Is.
# Mitchell got his second Man of the Match award in T20Is – his first was for posting a career-best score – 72 not out vs England at Abu Dhabi on November 10, 2021.
# Washington Sundar registered an exceptional performance in Twenty20 Internationals by posting his maiden fifty (50 off 28 balls) and claiming two wickets off just 22 runs against New Zealand at Ranchi on January 23, 2023.
# Sundar became just the second Indian batter at number six or below after Axar Patel (65 + 2/24 vs Sri Lanka at Pune on January 5, 2023) to accomplish the double of a fifty and two wickets in the same T20I.
# Thanks to his recent consistent batting, Suryakumar Yadav is averaging 70-plus in T20Is this year – his tally being 217 in four innings, including a century and a fifty at an average of 72.33.
# With his 52 vs India at Ranchi on January 27, 2023, Devon Conway is averaging 64.14 in a winning cause in T20Is – his tally being 898, including seven fifties, in 22 innings.
# Arshdeep Singh conceded 27 runs to Daryll Mitchell in his last over – the 20th of the innings – in the first T20I at Ranchi. Just two Indian bowlers have conceded more runs in an over – 34 by Shivam Dube vs New Zealand at Mount Maunganui on February 2, 2020 and 32 by Stuart Binny vs West Indies at Lauderhill on August 27, 2016.
