A fitting end to the ODI series, with the ebbs and flows of the format on full display. A night to remember for Michael Bracewell and his men, all smiles as they pose with the trophy for the cameras. Attention now turns to the more consequential of the two white-ball series, with a five-match T20I series up next. With the T20 World Cup coming up, this series presents an ideal opportunity for both teams to fine-tune their combinations and preparations. The series gets underway in Nagpur on Wednesday, 21st January, with the first ball to be bowled at 1.30 pm GMT (7 pm IST). As always, you can join us early for the build-up. Until then, take care and goodbye!
The captain of New Zealand, Michael Bracewell, shares that it is always a pleasure to play in India in front of such amazing crowds and against a quality Indian team. Mentions that you are always hopeful of playing good cricket, and they stuck to what worked as a team. Bracewell says that they always try to work their way up to take on some of the bigger teams. Tells that he is happy for Daryl Mitchell and he believes that this is the result of his hard work. Praises the debutants for stepping up and he feels the way they delivered speaks volumes about the depth in their ranks.
No surprises that Daryl Mitchell has been named the PLAYER OF THE MATCH as well as the PLAYER OF THE SERIES. Mitchell says that it's really nice to contribute towards the team and it is special to win here in India. Adds that they take pride in building partnerships, and the way Young and Phillips did with him was great. Tells that it is always nice to get stuck into moments in the game with your mates. Mentions that he just tries to be in the present, watch the ball and repeat and make some good decisions along the way. Says that Phillips is a mate, and it was awesome to see him get a 100. He has been out of the game for a while, but he is proud of how he has come back. Ends by saying that he just loves playing for his country, it took a while to get here but domestic cricket has helped him learn about his game a lot.
The captain of India, Shubman Gill says that the way they played after winning the first game was disappointing. Believes that there are areas that need improvement. Mentions that the way Harshit Rana batted at number 8 was a positive and the way pacers operated was good to see. Shares that keeping in mind where the next ODI World Cup is going to be held, they want to give opportunities to Nitish Kumar Reddy. Adds that they want to assess what combinations work for them and what kind of deliveries work for Reddy.
Time for the presentation ceremony...
Jayden Lennox is in for a chat. Lennox says that he wouldn't say he found the Indian conditions easy. Adds that putting up winning performances against a star-studded side is very special, and it is incredible to win their first-ever ODI series here. Mentions that he does not overcomplicate his game, he has played on small grounds and takes pride in doing well at the death and creating pressure. Says that the aim for left-arm spinners in limited overs cricket is not be predictable and not let the batters get underneath or use their feet. Further adds that he thought the atmosphere here would make him more nervous, but he handled it well. Tells that they had a relatively inexperienced unit, but they have performed really well in pressure situations. Ends by crediting the New Zealand setup, who are operating and doing a great job.
Earlier, after being asked to bat first, New Zealand were reduced to 5/2, losing both openers within the first two overs, and Will Young was unable to make his start count. The recovery was led by Daryl Mitchell and Glenn Phillips, who put together a marathon 219-run partnership. The pair were able to make up for the dots that had built up earlier, largely due to the disciplined bowling from the hosts. Both batters went on to register centuries, with Mitchell notching up his career-best ODI score of 139. Both fell within 7 balls heading into the death overs, which allowed India to claw things back. However, Michael Bracewell and contributions from the lower order helped the Kiwis reach 337.
The problem for India was that on either side of those partnerships, there were no substantial stands of note, and it left Kohli fighting a lone battle for much of the chase. A word, too, for Jayden Lennox, who in just his second ODI stepped up admirably and assumed the role of lead spinner in the absence of Michael Bracewell, who was unable to bowl due to a calf issue. Kyle Jamieson asked all the tough questions in the first Powerplay, while Zakary Foulkes and Kristian Clarke, though not as effective early on, played their part later by breaking the two budding partnerships.
Chasing 338, India lost Rohit Sharma early, while Shubman Gill was undone by a ripper from Kyle Jamieson. New Zealand continued to make inroads with a couple of quick strikes, reducing India to 71/4. Virat Kohli then held the chase together, first with Nitish Kumar Reddy through an 88-run stand, and later with a 99-run partnership alongside Harshit Rana. The stand with Rana, in particular, brought the hosts right back into the contest, but once it was broken, Kohli was left with too much to do.
Another piece of cricketing history has been written by New Zealand in India. They arrived in 2024 carrying the burden of never having won a Test series in the country, and they ticked that box. The Kiwis returned to Indian shores, having never won an ODI series here on their previous 7 tours, and they have now conquered that frontier as well. What makes it even more special is that they have achieved this feat with an inexperienced group, missing several established ODI regulars, and with a number of players touring India for the first time.

Kristian Clarke To Arshdeep Singh OUT!
OUT! KULDEEP YADAV IS RUN OUT! A brilliant piece of fielding, and Glenn Phillips has the final say in this game. Kristian Clarke lands this on a hard length and on off. Arshdeep Singh pushes it towards cover and sets off for the run. Phillips is quick to move to his right, picks it up, and without much of a backlift scores a direct hit at the batter's end in one motion. Kuldeep Yadav thinks he is in, and he turns back for the second run as the ball deflects away in the deep. However, it has been sent upstairs, and the replay shows that Kuldeep did not slide his bat inside in time. Phillips is ecstatic seeing this on the big screen, and every Kiwi player surrounds him to celebrate this historic win. NEW ZEALAND WIN BY 41 RUNS AND SEAL THE SERIES 2-1!
Direct hit! Kuldeep Yadav was struggling to make his ground. And he is indeed short of his crease, the replays confirm.

Kristian Clarke To Virat Kohli OUT!
OUT! IN THE AIR....GONE! That is probably the game for New Zealand, and it is pin-drop silence here in Indore. Kristian Clarke goes fuller and on off. Virat Kohli tries to launch it down the ground, but his bat turns in his hands upon contact. He ends up mistiming it high in the air towards long off, where fittingly, it is Daryl Mitchell who settles under it and pouches it safely. It is disappointing for Kohli and India, as he walks back for a magnificent 124 off 108, but it won't be in a winning cause here. The crowd applauds him, but it is the Kiwis who are celebrating.

FOUR! Excellent effort in the deep but goes in vain! Back of a length and on off, Virat Kohli heaves it away off the inside half of the bat as the ball races wide of deep mid-wicket. Glenn Phillips runs to his right and puts a big dive to stop the ball. However, the ball still rolls away, and Phillips tries to kick it away, but his shoulder touches the cushions while doing that. He signals a boundary. Fair play to him.

Zakary Foulkes To Mohammed Siraj OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Mohammed Siraj has been strangled down leg. Two in two for Zakary Foulkes. Full and sliding down leg, Siraj looks to play the glance but the ball grazes the edge and the keeper, Mitchell Hay gets low to his left to gobble it up. Siraj was not sure whether he nicked it but opted against the review after having a chat with Kohli. Foulkes is on a hat-trick.
Massive blow for India. Now, Mohammed Siraj walks out to bat.

We have a game on here in Indore. New Zealand is feeling the absence of Michael Bracewell here. Daryl Mitchell still needs to get a couple of overs from either him or Glenn Phillips. For now, it is Zakary Foulkes.

This is on a length and on middle, Kohli tucks with soft hands towards mid-wicket for one. He turns around for the second, but Foulkes is quick to run to his right to collect it and throws it at the bowler's end to keep it to one.

Sign of intent! Tossed up, full and on middle, Virat Kohli comes down the track and lofts it on the bounce to long on for a single.
DRINKS! India are on the verge of breaking another unwanted record here of not losing a single ODI series at home against New Zealand. However, as long as Virat Kohli is out there, they still have hopes, but he needs support from the other end as well. The Kiwis in the last few overs have done well to keep Kohli off strike, and this will put more and more pressure on him to get quick runs as the asking rate is going up too. It will be interesting to see how Kohli bats now, with the lower order, as he needs to face most of the balls from now on.

Jayden Lennox To Ravindra Jadeja OUT!
OUT! TAKEN! Jayden Lennox strikes gold again, and this is a big moment in this game. He sees the batter charge down the track, follows him and slows it up in the air, lands this full and on leg. Ravindra Jadeja does not quite get to the pitch of it but still goes through the heave across the line. It flies off the inside half of the bat straight towards deep mid-wicket, where Will Young pouches it safely. Jadeja fails to make an impact with the bat yet again in this series, and India are in big trouble now.

DRINKS BREAK! An eventful first 16 overs of the chase and New Zealand find themselves in the ascendancy. India have managed to tick along at a decent rate, but it is the wickets column that will hurt them most. With not much batting to come, if there is to be a rescue act, it will have to come from this pair. The Kiwis will feel that Virat Kohli stands between them and a historic maiden ODI series win in India. With Michael Bracewell unlikely to bowl due to a calf issue, how the stand-in skipper, Daryl Mitchell, manages his options through this middle phase will be interesting to see.

A massive shout for LBW, but turned down! Kristian Clarke starts celebrating, and New Zealand take the review here. This is a clever off-cutter, on a length and on off, turns in a bit. Virat Kohli looks to clip it across the line but misses and gets hit on the pads. It looks very close. The replay shows that the impact might be just outside off, and the Ball Tracking confirms it. Huge roar from the crowd. Kiwis lose a review.

Jayden Lennox To KL Rahul OUT!
OUT! TAKEN! Jayden Lennox strikes in his first over, and this is a big wicket for New Zealand, as the centurion from the last game goes back cheaply here. This is slower through the air, full and around off, stops on the surface and turns away too. KL Rahul is taken aback by it as he looks to push it away but just checks his shot. The ball hits the sticker of the bat and loops towards extra cover, where Glenn Phillips takes a simple catch.

Kristian Clarke To Shreyas Iyer OUT!
OUT! TAKEN! Shreyas Iyer absolutely throws his wicket away here. Kristian Clarke bangs this into the pitch and around. Iyer stands tall and tries to pull it on the front foot. He hits it quite well but does not get the elevation at all. It flies flat and straight to mid on, where Zakary Foulkes reverse cups it near his chest, while tumbling backwards after taking it. Poor choice of shot from Iyer and he has to walk back for 3 off 10, and India are 68/3, chasing 338 runs.

FOUR MORE! Clarke keeps it full but this is a bit too straight. Kohli plays the flick with ease and wide of mid-wicket. He manages to beat the fielder in the deep to his left for a four.
On Shubman Gill’s dismissal, Sunil Gavaskar said on air that he had heard Gill was advised to take his backlift from third man due to his struggles for runs before the series, but he dismissed that idea as complete rubbish. Gavaskar explained that such a backlift often creates a big gap between bat and pad, which was evident in Gill’s dismissal. He stressed that it is the mindset, not the technique, that needs to change, and praised Mitchell and Phillips for playing with a straighter bat and being rewarded for it in the first innings.

OUT! CASTLED! Kyle Jamieson produces an absolute beauty. Shubman Gill wears a puzzled look, staring at the 22 yards. A sharp nip-backer, landing on a patch of grass, on a good length, outside the off stump. Shubman does not get completely forward and brings his bat out in front. The ball jags back in to go past the inside edge. It clips the front pad before going through and uprooting the off stump.
