IND vs NZ: Another series in the bag and the quality and confidence of Men in Blue reaches on next level. While India would be looking to clean sweep Kiwis at their home, the hosts are left with plenty of issues to ponder. All the three games so far have been one-sided with little or no contest for the visitors.
Virat Kohli leaves the squad with a smile on his face and opener Rohit Sharma will be leading the side in the remaining two ODIs and the T20Is that follows up. MS Dhoni, who was an absentee in the last ODI due to hamstring strain still remains doubtful as there is no update about him. The team management also refrained from speaking about the intensity of the injury and with series already sealed it looks like MS Dhoni might sit out in this ODI too.
