IND vs NZ 3rd ODI predicted playing XI: Here's how India and New Zealand could lineup in the third ODI of the series on January 24 in Indore.
Team India will be gunning for a clean sweep when they take the field against New Zealand in the decisive third and final ODI of the series on Tuesday. The match is set to be held at the Holkar Cricket Stadium in Indore. Led by Rohit Sharma, the Indian side got off to a strong start in the series, clinching a 12-run victory in the opening ODI.
The hosts continued their winning streak with a convincing eight-wicket victory in the next game, causing New Zealand to slip to second place in the ICC Men's ODI Team Rankings. If India can complete a whitewash against the Tom Latham-led side, they will ascend to the top of the ODI standings.
With the T20 fixtures scheduled for later this week, the team management may be tempted to rest Hardik Pandya and give Shahbaz Ahmed a chance to shine in the final ODI. The 28-year-old Bengal all-rounder has already featured in three ODIs and has performed admirably with the ball. Although Shahbaz is yet to demonstrate his batting prowess on the international stage, he has proven his worth in domestic cricket and the IPL.
Hardik, on the other hand, has been underwhelming with the bat of late. He had a mediocre series against Sri Lanka and has yet to make an impact against New Zealand.
