IND vs NZ: Team India’s playing XI has been selected for the third ODI! Clean sweep threat on New Zealand

Indore: After winning the first two matches of the three ODI series, the Indian team has taken an unassailable 2-0 lead over New Zealand. In such a situation, in the third match, Team India will now take the field with the intention of clean sweep, in which its middle-order batsmen will try to perform well. India can make some changes in their bowling in this match due to their name in the series first. Opener batsman Shubman Gill is in excellent form. He scored a double century in the first match and scored an innings of 40 runs in the low-scoring second match. Skipper Rohit Sharma has also got off to a good start and would like to convert it into a big score.

The Indian team will be well aware that despite having an unassailable lead in the series, only Gill and Rohit have been able to score runs so far. It is also a fact that other batsmen haven’t got enough opportunities so players like Ishan Kishan, Hardik Pandya and Suryakumar Yadav will get a good chance to get some batting practice in match conditions. Virat Kohli is once again finding it difficult to play left arm spinners. This charismatic batsman has been consistently dismissed by Mitchell Santner.

All eyes will be on Kohli

Kohli, who scored three hundreds in four innings before the ODI series against New Zealand, was dismissed cheaply in the last two ODIs as the New Zealand left-arm spinner exposed his weakness. When the World Cup is to be held this year, when will Kohli want to overcome this weakness as soon as possible. In the absence of Shreyas Iyer, good innings were expected from Suryakumar but this batsman who made a splash in T20 failed in the first match of the series.

Hardik is also not able to contribute enough in the middle order. India also have to play T20 series against New Zealand this weekend and after that they will play series against Australia next month and in such a situation, the team management can rest some players and give Rajat Patidar a chance to debut. Patidar has impressed with his performances at the domestic level. Changes can also be made in the bowling department and fast bowler Umran Malik and leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal can be kept in the team.

Bowlers will have to repeat the second ODI performance

Indian bowlers had given New Zealand chances of scoring more than 300 runs after bowling out New Zealand for 131 for six in the first ODI but they did well in the second match in Raipur. Mohammed Siraj, Mohammed Shami and Hardik have done well so far while the spinners have also played their part well. By winning this match, New Zealand will try their best to stop India from cleansweeping and with this they will also want to boost their morale before the T20 series.

Possible playing XI of Team India- Rohit Sharma (Captain), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Ishaan Kishan (Wicketkeeper), Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Washington Sundar, Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Siraj, Mohammed Shami.
