About Team India:
Going into this ODI series against Kane Williamson-led New Zealand side, Team India will once again bank on their key players led by Virat Kohli and the likes of Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma, Ajinkya Rahane and Mahendra Singh Dhoni. Youngsters including all-rounder Hardik Pandya, Manish Pandey and Kedar Jadhav will also play an important role. In the bowling department, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Jasprit Bumrah hold a key to success in the limited over game.
About New Zealand:
On the other hand, New Zealand will hope the experienced Ross Taylor and skipper Kane Williamson to shoulder the responsibility in the batting department. Pace bowling wise though, New Zealand seem settled with Trent Boult having already picked a five-fer in the first practice game. Tim Southee and Adam Milne are the other two bowlers to look out for in this series.
