Mayank Yadav replaced Bhuvneshwar Kumar for the fourth T20I at Eden Park, Auckland on 30 October. He bowled at 143 kph and dismissed Daryl Mitchell lbw while finishing with three wickets. India elected to bowl first. Shreyas Iyer said Ishan Kishan and Mayank Yadav replaced Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Mitchell Santner confirmed New Zealand made one change, with Nathan Smith coming in for Kyle Jamieson.

CricHubb Take
