The Indian and New Zealand teams have arrived in the Steel City of Vizag for the 1st T20I on Wednesday. The two teams arrived here in a special chartered flight from Bangalore. It is learnt that the tickets for this 1st T20I at the Dr YS Rajasekhara Reddy ADA-VDCA Cricket Stadium have been sold out like hot cakes already.

The special attraction of the 2-T20I Series between India and New Zealand is the comeback of Yuvraj Singh after a long layoff due to cancer. This will be a huge test of sorts for Yuvraj Singh to show that he is fit and match ready to take part in the ICC World Twenty20 2012 in Sri Lanka.

The two teams will take part in net practice on Thursday and Friday. The first T20I will be played on Saturday.
