LBW review! Is that bat first? Southee is confident that it is not bat first. Replays confirm that. Nothing on Hot Spot. Will height be an issue? Umpire's call on height!
Believe it or not, we are going to have an 8-1 off side field. Nope. 7-2. No third man. He moves to short mid-wicket.
4.3 overs (0 Run) No run.
4.2 overs (0 Run) No run.
4.1 overs (0 Run) That is a jaffa. On a length outside off, Agarwal walks down the track, looks to defend but the ball moves away and squares him up.
3.6 overs (4 Runs) FOUR! Back-to-back boundaries! A length ball, outside off, Shaw gets on top of the bounce and punches it through the covers!

1.6 overs (2 Runs) Too short and too wide outside off, opportunity for runs and Agarwal does not miss out. Punches it through the covers and gets a couple.
1.5 overs (1 Run) The batsman has punched that ball through the off side. They pick up a single.
1.4 overs (2 Runs) FIRST RUNS OFF THE BAT. A short ball, outside off, Shaw punches it through the covers. The outfield is not the quickest and Tim Southee gets to it from mid off. Two runs taken. Those are the first, of many, for Shaw in ODI cricket.

We are all set to begin! The two new openers for India, Mayank Agarwal and Prithvi Shaw make their way out to the middle. The Kiwi players are in a huddle before they take their respective positions in the field. Tim Southee to start off proceedings. Shaw to face. Here we go...
Both teams are out on the field for the respective National Anthems.
PITCH REPORT - Scott Styris says that the soil used is the Mohali soil. VVS Laxman observes that there is no grass cover as the batting of New Zealand is not that strong. Believes that it is a good pitch to bat on and might aid spin later on in the innings. Styris adds that the pitch looks a bit tacky, so the ball might stick on the surface initially but then should come onto the bat as the game goes on.
New Zealand (Playing XI) - Martin Guptill, Henry Nicholls, Tom Latham(C AND WK), Tom Blundell, Ross Taylor, Jimmy Neesham, Colin de Grandhomme, Mitchell Santner, Tim Southee, Ish Sodhi and Hamish Bennett.
India (Playing XI) - Prithvi Shaw, Mayank Agarwal, Virat Kohli(C), Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul(WK), Kedar Jadhav, Ravindra Jadeja, Shardul Thakur, Mohammed Shami, Kuldeep Yadav and Jasprit Bumrah.
Indian captain, Virat Kohli too, admits he would have bowled first, as it is a short ground and under lights, batting gets easier. But is now looking to bat well, especially in the absence of Rohit Sharma. Is super excited to see a new opening combination in Prithvi Shaw and Mayank Agarwal. Informs that Manish Pandey, Rishabh Pant, Shivam Dube, Navdeep Saini and Yuzvendra Chahal are the 5 guys missing out from the squad. Believes that Kuldeep Yadav's variety tips him ahead of Chahal. Feels that at home, they can be dominant as anyone but it is foreign conditions which will test them. Hence, he believes that a 5-0 win in the T20Is puts them in really good perspective. Adds that since this year has a major focus on T20Is, one would see plenty of new faces being tried out in the ODIs.
New Zealand skipper, Tom Latham, says that the reason is due to history where chasing is favoured in the ground as it becomes difficult to defend under lights. Informs Neesham and de Grandhomme are the all-rounders while the seam attack comprises of Tim Southee and Hamish Bennett. Further says that Mitchell Santner and Ish Sodhi would be their spinners. On being asked whether they could take confidence from an ODI which was played as long as 5 months ago, Latham is confident that they can maintain their good run.
TOSS - Latham flips is the coin, Heads is the call from Kohli but it is a Tail. NEW ZEALAND ELECT TO CHASE.
Prithvi Shaw and Mayanak Agarwal are being handed their ODI caps. Good luck to them!
WEATHER - For starters, it is a bright and sunny afternoon in Hamilton. No threat of rain.
New Zealand, on the other hand, are returning to the format post their dramatic World Cup loss against England. They were in a thumping form during the tournament, but here with a few key players from that team missing, they will look to trouble the Indians and make amends to their whitewash in the T20I series. Stay with us to find out how things pan out.
After a thumping victory over the hosts in the 5-match T20I series, the caravan moves to 50-over format. By the looks of things, one can say the story in this format won't be a lot different. Both the teams are marred with injuries to their one of the star players - Rohit Sharma for India and regular skipper Kane Williamson for New Zealand. India are set to hand debuts to Prithvi Shaw and Mayank Agarwal and it will be interesting to see if these prospects shine for the Indians and show their strengthened bench strength in this format.
