India vs New Zealand on January 24
India will be hosting New Zealand in the third and last ODI match at the Holkar Cricket Stadium in Indore on Tuesday. The Men in Blue sealed the three-match series with a dominating eight-wicket win in the second match. Indian bowlers proved very strong and bowled out the Black Caps for just 108 runs with Mohammed Shami taking three wickets while Hardik Pandya and Washington Sundar picking two. Then the Indian openers Rohit Sharma top-scored 51 off 50 and in-form Shubman Gill scored 40* off 53 to ease the hosts to a big win in just 20.1 overs. Both teams are likely to make some changes to their playing XI for the last game and to rest key players for the scheduled T20I series starting on January 27.
Best economical pick – Michael Bracewell, the kiwi batting all-rounder has been New Zealand's best batter in this series so far with 162 runs from two innings at a strike rate of 150.
Top captains & vice captains –The in-form Indian opener Shubman Gill scored 40* off 53 in the second ODI to help India seal the series. He scored 208 runs in the first match and currently leads the scoring chart with 248 runs in this series. The star Kiwi opener Devon Conway scored just seven runs in the last game and has scored 17 runs from two overall innings in this series. But he scored 153 runs against Pakistan in the recent ODI series and remains a crucial batter for New Zealand in the upcoming fixture.
Smart pick – Indian captain Rohit Sharma top-scored 51 off 50 balls while chasing a 109-run target in the last match and scored 34 off 38 in the opening game. Rohit has been crucial in giving India good starts in the recent games.
Cautious Pick – The 31-year-old middle-order batter Henry Nicholls scored just two runs off 20 balls after scoring just 18 runs in the first match. Nicholls has scored just 92 runs in his overall last five matches and should be avoided for this fixture.
My XI – Shubman Gill (Captain), Devon Conway (Vice-Captain), Michael Bracewell, Suryakumar Yadav, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammad Siraj, Tom Latham, Rohit Sharma, Shardul Thakur, Virat Kohli, Daryl Mitchell
