After kick-starting the five-match series on a winning note, India will look to continue their dominance when they head into the second ODI against New Zealand at the the Bay Oval in Tauranga on Saturday.
The Men in Blue had a near- perfect start to their New Zealand tour as they clinched a crushing eight-wicket win in the opening match at McLean Park, which saw return of international game after nearly two years.
The Kane Williamson-led side, who were outclassed by the visitors in all departments in Napier, will look to shrug off their disappointing show and put up a better performance at the Bay Oval.
The Black Caps struggled against the Indian bowlers at McLean Park, with spin duo Kuldeep Yadav and Yuzvendra Chahal bagging four and two wickets respectively while Mohammed Shami finishing with a Man of the Match performance for his figures of 3 for 19.
However, the biggest plus point for India during the first ODI was opener Shikhar Dhawan regaining some form with the bat and scoring an unbeaten knock of 75 runs to help the visitors cross the mark in 34.5 overs.
For New Zealand, skipper Kane Williamson was the only batsman to have made significant contribution with his 64- run knock while other struggled to bat at the other end as the hosts set a lowly 157-run score.
The opening ODI in Napier also saw the play getting interrupted for some time not due to rain but because of sun outrage.
Going into the second ODI, India have got another boost as the Committee of Administrators (CoA) has revoked its interim suspensions on Hardik Pandya and KL Rahul for their sexist remarks during a celebrity talk show and the duo is now all set to join the team in New Zealand.
Meanwhile, it will be for the first time that the Bay Oval ground will host Team India.
The two squads are as follows:
India: Virat Kohli (captain), Rohit Sharma, Shikhar Dhawan, Mahendra Singh Dhoni (wk), Kedar Jadhav, Dinesh Karthik, Vijay Shankar, Shubman Gill, Yuzvendra Chahal, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Shami, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mohammed Siraj, Khaleel Ahmed, Ravindra Jadeja, Hardik Pandya.
New Zealand: Kane Williamson (captain), Ross Taylor, Tom Latham, Martin Guptill, Colin de Grandhomme, Trent Boult, Henry Nicholls, Doug Bracewell, Lockie Ferguson, Matt Henry, Colin Munro, Ish Sodhi, Mitchell Santner, Tim Southee
