New Zealand are bracing themselves for a fierce challenge as they prepare to take on India in an upcoming five-match T20I series.

Left-arm spinner Mitchell Santner has opened up about the tactical blueprint required to contain India's aggressive big hitters.

The Kiwi spinner is banking on early-season conditions to offer some much-needed assistance to his bowling attack.

However, Santner stressed the absolute necessity for his bowlers to adapt quickly to match situations.

He acknowledged that boundaries are bound to flow against such a potent batting lineup.

Despite the inevitable onslaught, Santner emphasized that the bowling unit must stay in the contest and maintain composure.
