India lost the three-match ODI series against New Zealand 2-1 at home, marking New Zealand's first series win in India. Despite Virat Kohli's strong performance, including a 124-run innings in the decider, India struggled with inconsistent batting and ineffective bowling, particularly from Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep Yadav. Captain Shubman Gill acknowledged positives but hinted at changes ahead. The defeat sparked criticism of head coach Gautam Gambhir and raised questions about team strategy and personnel ahead of upcoming tournaments.
