MATCH LIVE
HEAD 2 HEAD
India and New Zealand have played each other in 62 ODI matches overall. New Zealand has won 13 matches, while India has won by a margin of 22 matches. 27 games featured a tie between the two teams.
PITCH REPORT
The bowlers, especially the pacers, prefer the surface at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamshala. The power plays could be extremely important for the bowling side given the early ball movement in the game. It might be wise to choose to bowl first and chase the target.
INJURY UPDATES
While Hardik Pandya’s ankle injury is not particularly serious, he will undoubtedly miss India’s game against New Zealand. Hardik Pandya was injured against Bangladesh in the most recent match. In light of this, it remains to be seen who will join the Indian team in Dharamshala in place of the all-rounder. Ravichandran Ashwin may be called back for this specific game, or India may choose to use another batter in Surya Kumar Yadav.
The talismanic captain of New Zealand, Kane Williamson, will be absent after suffering a thumb injury against Bangladesh. The Black Caps will be hoping for the best lineup against India, but it appears they’ll start with the same starting XI as their previous game.
