Mount Maunganui Weather: IND vs NZ LIVE – After the first match was abandoned in Wellington without the toss, both India and NewZealand will travel to Mount Maunganui for the 2nd match on Sunday.

The weather gods haven’t been kind in the Trans Tasman region over the past couple of months, but Hardik Pandya and Co will hope to get a game away at the Bay Oval.

Mount Maunganui Weather: After Wellington washout, India vs NewZealand 2nd T20 also under rain threat, Bay Oval match could be called off due to rain – Follow IND vs NZ LIVE Updates
In what is grim news for Indian cricket fans, the IND vs NZ 2nd T20 also faces the threat of a washout with incessant rains forecasted for the game on Sunday. While there is only a 6% chance of rain at the start of the game, the threat significantly rises as the match progresses with a 64% chance of rain during the mid-innings break.
Considering the forecast, a washout is on the cards which is not the best news for Hardik Pandya and Co. The Men in Blue were set for a T20 reboot, and have already been robbed of a game in Wellington. Another washout would deplete the morale of the squad, while also denying opportunities for fringe players to make a mark.
