India Prepares for Five-Match ODI Series Against New Zealand Featuring Kohli and Rohit
India's cricket team is set to play a five-match ODI series against New Zealand starting November 4 at Eden Park, Auckland. Former captains Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, focusing on ODIs after retiring from other formats, are key players. Kohli has a stronger overall ODI record against New Zealand, with six centuries, though only one on New Zealand soil. Cheteshwar Pujara suggests Kohli has a higher chance of scoring a century in this series due to his batting position. India aims to improve their ODI series record in New Zealand, having last won there in 2018-19.
