Preview

India will host New Zealand in the first ODI match at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Wednesday (January 18). The Indian team beat Sri Lanka in three-match ODI series by 3-0 after their shocking defeat against Bangladesh last month. They put in impressive all-round performance against Sri Lanka with Virat Kohli and Mohammed Siraj dominating the series. 

New Zealand lost the opening ODI against Pakistan but made a good comeback by winning the following two matches to seal the series. Captain Kane Williamson and head coach Gary Stead are missing the tour alongside star pacers Tim Southee, Matt Henry, Adam Milne, and Trent Boult.

The in-form wicketkeeper batter Tom Latham will be leading the team for the Kiwis, who scored 145* against India during India's tour of New Zealand last month. New Zealand rank first in the current ICC ODI Team's chart and have not lost any of last five ODI encounters against India.

Player Picks

9
C

Virat Kohli IND | BAT

The star Indian batter smashed 166* off 110 in the last ODI match against Sri Lanka and scored 283 runs from three innings at an average of 141.50. He has scored three hundreds from his last four ODIs and will be a safe captaincy option on the Dream11 Team.

8
VC

Shubman Gill IND | BAT

The young opener scored 116 off 97 in the third ODI against Sri Lanka and 76 off 60 in the first match. He has scored 894 runs from just 18 ODIs at an impressive average of 59.60 so far.

9
C

Tom Latham NZ | WK

New Zealand's stand-in captain scored 145* off 104 during the first ODI of India's tour to New Zealand in November 2022. He scored 60 runs from three innings against Pakistan in the recent ODIs.

8.5

Devon Conway NZ | BAT

The star opener scored 153 runs from three innings with the help of one hundred and a half-century against Pakistan in ODIs. He has scored 578 runs from just 14 ODIs and will be a key batter for Kiwis in this series.

8.5

Mohammed Siraj IND | BOWL

The right-arm pacer dominated the ODI series against Sri Lanka with nine wickets from just three innings, including four wickets in the last match.

8.5

Rohit Sharma IND | BAT

Indian captain struggled for consistency in the recent ODIs but managed to score 142 runs from three innings at an average of 47.33 with the help of one fifty against Sri Lanka.

7

Glenn Phillips NZ | WK

The versatile New Zealand all-rounder smashed match-winning 63* in the third ODI against Pakistan and scored 103 runs from three innings.

9

Suryakumar Yadav IND | BAT

The number one T20I batter in the ICC rankings has yet to achieve the same numbers in the ODI format. He played the third ODI against Sri Lanka and managed just four runs. With Shreyas Iyer out of the series, Surya will likely get an extended run in this series, and he should capitalize on this opportunity.

7

Michael Bracewell NZ | BAT

The experienced spin all-rounder scored 58 runs from three innings in ODIs against Pakistan but also managed to get four wickets at an impressive economy rate of 3.90.
