We are all set for the action to begin. The players stride out in the middle for their respective national anthem. It will be India's first, followed by the national anthem of New Zealand.

Shikhar Dhawan, the skipper of India, says that they will go with the mindset to win the game. Adds that they will look to keep the process right and are looking forward to this game. Shares that rain can be frustrating but the team is in a relaxed mood. Feels that they switch on when the need is to focus. Reckons that there is more grass on this wicket and they would have bowled first as well. Also says that it seamed a lot in the last game and the wicket played well. Says that he is happy with the consistency of Shubman Gill and Suryakumar Yadav. Adds that they will look to bat with intent. Ends by informing that they are going with the same team.

Kane Williamson, the skipper of New Zealand, says they will bowl first as the surface is good to bowl on. Adds that overhead conditions are a bit different and they would like to carry on the same performance as they did in the first game. Ends by saying that the surface has a bounce and they have one change in their team - Adam Milne comes in for Michael Bracewell.

India (Unchanged Playing XI) - Shikhar Dhawan (C), Shubman Gill, Suryakumar Yadav, Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant (WK), Deepak Hooda, Washington Sundar, Deepak Chahar, Umran Malik, Arshdeep Singh, Yuzvendra Chahal.

TOSS - The coin toss lands in the favour of New Zealand and they have opted to bowl first.

PITCH REPORT - It has been raining and there is a bit of grass on the pitch. It will assist the seamers early on and the batting will get easier as the day progresses. The toss-winning team will be looking to bowl first.

Update 6.33 am IST (1.03 am GMT) - The drizzle has stopped and the covers are been taken off the ground. Umpires are having a discussion in the middle as the ground is a bit damp. We should have the toss anytime soon. 

Update 6.09 am IST (12.39 am GMT) – It is drizzling at the Hagley Oval at the moment and the covers are on. Toss has been delayed for now. Let's hope that the weather clears up soon. Stay tuned!

Shikhar Dhawan will want to win this game with the team and put up a good opening stand alongside Shubman Gill, who has been in excellent form. Sanju Samson is another batter who's been a hot topic for quite some time now. With less than a year until the next ODI World Cup, both teams will be looking for the best XI in the 50-over format. The stakes are high, as both sides would be hoping for a win in this game. Which side will come out on top? Let's find out. Stay tuned for toss and other updates.

Kane Williamson will be happy with his performance, to begin with. He has struggled in the shortest format of the game and as expected, made a good comeback as the ODI series kicked off in Auckland. The skipper had an amazing knock in the first ODI alongside the reliable Tom Latham in the middle order as he stitched a match-winning partnership. They will be hoping to carry on the same momentum in this game as well. They will hope their bowling unit performs well in this game, as they need to win this one.

Warm welcome, folks! It is time for the third and final ODI of the series. The series stands with New Zealand leading 1-0. The 2nd ODI was abandoned due to rains where Shubman Gill and Suryakumar Yadav had a 66 runs partnership after losing Shikhar Dhawan early on in the game. The 3rd and final ODI of the series at Hagley Oval will be crucial from India's point of view, as they will be looking to level this series.
