IND vs NZ 1st ODI predicted playing XI: Here's how India and New Zealand could lineup in the first ODI of the series on January 18 in Hyderabad.
India's preparations for the 2023 ODI World Cup got off to a great start as the Rohit Sharma-led squad swept Sri Lanka in the three-match series. India now faces a confident New Zealand side, eager to prove their mettle.
New Zealand's tour of India will commence with a three-match ODI series, followed by a three-match T20I series. The first match of the New Zealand's white-ball tour of India is scheduled to take place at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad on Wednesday, setting the stage for an exciting series of matches between the two teams.
The Kiwis, on the other hand, will come into the fixture after a stunning ODI series victory over Pakistan. Unfortunately, the New Zealand team management received a major setback prior to the India tour when their fast bowler Adam Milne was ruled out of competitive cricket due to a hamstring injury. As a result, Blair Tickner was called up to replace Milne in the ODI squad.
Virat Kohli has been in sensational form lately, and with the bowlers also performing in unison, India is the clear favorite heading into this series. Both teams are eager to gain the upper hand, setting the stage for an exciting match in Hyderabad.
