The Indian team is presently engaged in a three-game ODI series, the first of which was held in Hamilton.
Facing a challenging target of 348, New Zealand started their chase with Martin Guptill and Henry Nicholls. The opening duo set a solid foundation, bringing the score to 85 in 15.4 overs before Guptill was dismissed for 32 runs from 41 deliveries. The baton was then passed to Ross Taylor, who took charge with a powerful performance. He found a reliable partner in Captain Tom Latham; as Latham anchored the innings with a measured approach, Taylor went on a rampage against the Indian bowling lineup. With a flurry of fours and sixes, Taylor successfully reached his 21st century in ODI cricket.

During this partnership, Tom Latham departed after putting up a fighting 69 runs.
Despite Latham's exit, the seasoned Ross Taylor kept the momentum going to ensure the win. While James Neesham (9) and Glenn Phillips (5) failed to make a significant impact, New Zealand managed to chase down the target, finishing at 348/6 in 48.1 overs to win by 4 wickets. With this result, New Zealand leads the three-match series 1-0. The teams will face off again on the 8th in Auckland for the second match.

Even the precision specialist Jasprit Bumrah struggled, conceding 13 wide balls.
