Either way, win or lose, New Zealand will want to take away as many insights as they can before they return for the World Cup. They could now be in for a stiffer challenge, though.

Clearly, top-order batters Finn Allen, Devon Conway, Darryl Mitchell, and captain Tom Latham (who played down the order in Pakistan), Michael Bracewell have a task cut out with the bat for sure. In bowling, pacer Mohammed Siraj is having a dream run with the ball and will be playing his first international at home. It will be interesting to see whether Suryakumar Yadav finds a place in the eleven or not.

IND vs NZ: India look to finetune balance; New Zealand strive ... (The Indian Express)

Kiwis would seek exposure to subcontinental conditions, while India have holes to plug.

This is precisely the reason that India decided to split Chahal and Kuldeep so that one of their finger spinners – [Ravindra Jadeja](https://indianexpress.com/about/ravindra-jadeja/), [Axar Patel](https://indianexpress.com/about/axar-patel/), [Washington Sundar](https://indianexpress.com/about/washington-sundar/) – can be included to lend depth in the batting. On a given day, all the eleven players who take the field have to be in good form and without compromising on the strength of the XI members that are there. But those are the things that are not in your control,” Rohit added. You want to see good cricket being played without one (team) having the advantage of batting under lights with the dew. But having scored a double century in the last game he opened in Bangladesh, the left-hander will have to bat in the middle-order as India are not keen on separating Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill. That is the reason, he says, they have included Shardul Thakur, as “his ability with the bat can give us the edge at No 8”. With Ross Taylor not in the picture, in Latham, the Kiwis have a reliable accumulator at No 5. But as if often the case, New Zealand is flying under the radar, and the attention is once again on India. [Bhuvneshwar Kumar](https://indianexpress.com/about/bhuvneshwar-kumar/) not in the picture and Deepak Chahar injured, none of their first-choice pacers are handy with the bat. As they arrived at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium for a practice session on Tuesday, there were more support staff than players. Just a month after playing them in New Zealand in three ODIs and as many T20Is, they will repeat it in the reverse fixture. At the helm is Tom Latham, a wonderfully gifted player but massively under-rated in the format.

IND vs NZ: Virat Kohli Looking to Surpass Ricky Ponting, Virender ... (News18)

Virat Kohli has scored 3 centuries in his previous 4 outings and he will be eyeing another major record against New Zealand.

The swashbuckling batter has a rich history against New Zealand, and he will be hoping to surpass Ricky Ponting’s all-time record of most hundreds against the visitors in ODI cricket. Fans will be delighted to know that 4 of the five centuries of Kohli have come at home against New Zealand although his recent record has not been very good against them. On the back of his sensational performances against Sri Lanka, Kohli has risen to 4th place in the latest ICC ODI rankings for batsmen, although the 34-year-old will be eyeing plenty more records against the BlackCaps. The number 1 ranked ODI team in the world will be a stern test for the Men in Blue and the Kiwis are coming into the series after a triumph against Pakistan. Virat will be looking to continue his golden touch against New Zealand next, as the Kiwis will be touring the subcontinent for a three-match ODI series, followed by T20I series of as many games. [Virat Kohli](https://www.news18.com/topics/virat-kohli/) has begun the new year on a stunning note as he won the Player of the Series award against Sri Lanka, smashing two centuries in three ODI matches.

India vs New Zealand 1st ODI Live Score: India extended their dominant home record in the format by annihilating Sri Lanka in their previous match.

However, Gill's consistent performances in the Sri Lanka series, which includes his second ODI century, showed why the team has put their trust in him. New Zealand have decided to rest Kane Williamson and Tim Southee, their two seniormost players, for this series. He is on 46 centuries, needs three more to equal Sachin Tendulkar's record and there are three matches in this series. The spirit in the team is really good. While the rest of the inclusions are not surprising, Shardul Thakur's inclusion is. Catch live score and updates of IND vs NZ 1st ODI from Hyderabad here.

IND vs NZ: Reactions as Shubman Gill notches record-breaking ... (Scroll.in)

Gill, who was coming off confident after scoring 116 against Sri Lanka in the third ODI, provided a batting exhibition at a two-paced pitch at Hyderabad.

As a result of the stunning batting display, New Zealand will need to chase 350 runs to win. Taking on spin and pace alike, his innings was laced with nineteen boundaries and nine sixes in his 149-ball stay. India’s wicketkeeper-batter Ishan Kishan scored only five runs before he fell to Lockie Ferguson’s pace in a mini middle-order collapse for the hosts.

Gill oozed class in his special 208 off 149 balls and batted through the innings with not much support from the other end. He hit four boundaries in different parts of the ground to assert himself. The double century, his maiden, was also his second successive three digit score.
