New Zealand Achieves First ODI Series Win Against India on Indian Soil

New Zealand secured their first-ever bilateral ODI series win in India by defeating India 2-1, highlighted by centuries from Daryl Mitchell and Glenn Phillips. Mitchell scored a series-high 352 runs, including a 218-run partnership with Phillips in the final match, setting a target of 338. Despite Virat Kohli's 124 in the decider, India’s batting lineup largely underperformed. Shubman Gill, leading India as captain, has yet to win an ODI series. The victory follows New Zealand's previous Test series whitewash in India last year.
