India Seeks 2-0 Lead Against New Zealand Amid Rain Threat in Wellington ODI

India Seeks 2-0 Lead Against New Zealand Amid Rain Threat in Wellington ODIPreviousNext

India leads the five-match ODI series 1-0 against New Zealand, with the second match scheduled for November 7 at Wellington's Hnry Stadium. The Indian bowling attack impressed in the opener despite injuries and rested players, with Arshdeep Singh, Gurnoor Brar, and Anshul Kamboj performing well. Virat Kohli starred with a 74-run innings in the chase. However, persistent rain and cloudy, windy conditions in Wellington threaten to disrupt the second ODI, raising uncertainty about how much play will be possible.
