Pujara Predicts 2-2 Draw in India-New Zealand ODI Series, Backs Kohli for More Centuries
Former India batter Cheteshwar Pujara predicts the upcoming five-match ODI series between India and New Zealand will end in a 2-2 draw, with one match likely washed out due to rain. He notes New Zealand may have a slight advantage as India will field different squads in the series, with key players Shubman Gill and KL Rahul missing the last two games. Pujara also favors Virat Kohli over Rohit Sharma to score more centuries, citing Kohli's number three batting position and anchor role in New Zealand conditions.
