India vs New Zealand Live Score 3rd ODI: Quick recap

Here is a brief series review as the throw approaches:

Shubman Gill’s double century and India’s impressive total of 349/8, batting first, enabled India win the first ODI by 12 runs. The game began slowly for New Zealand, but Michael Bracewell and Mitchell Santner’s powerful hitting gave it life. They brought New Zealand very near the 350-run goal, but they could only muster 337/10 in 49.2 overs, with Bracewell the final batter to be bowled out.

Second ODI: The second ODI was a one-sided contest as Mohammed Shami’s Indian bowling assault smashed through the Kiwi line, dismissing them for 108 in 34.3 overs. India easily reached the goal and finished the game in 20.1 minutes.

India vs New Zealand Live Score 3rd ODI: What to expect

The batting order will probably stay the same no matter which team we choose. However, given the control of workload, bowling might benefit from a few adjustments.

The most experienced pacer in the group is Mohammed Shami, while Jasprit Bumrah is still suffering from a back injury. The management could want to give him a little break since the game is a dead rubber and the World Cup is coming up soon. If so, Umran Malik will be added to the starting lineup. He will be one of India’s key bowlers in the T20 International matches, which begin on Friday, so it will also be a preparation for the young players.

Yuzvendra Chahal might also play in some games and take Kuldeep Yadav’s place.
