The result in Delhi wasn’t something the Indian team had hoped for when the series started. New Zealand bounced back in the second game to win a nail-biter at the Feroz Shah Kotla. The series now locked at one game apiece.
India were denied by Trent Boult and Tim Southee in the last game in the death overs. MS Dhoni’s men now have to bounce back after facing a blip in the form to take the initiative. Mohali is hosting the 3rd ODI.

Meanwhile, it will be mountain to climb for the Blackcaps to beat Indian again. They showed some gritty bowling performance in the last game, but repeating the same against a star-studded Indian batting line-up would be tough.
India, on the other hand, have to work on the lapses pointed out by captain MS Dhoni after the last match. The Indian skipper was disappointed with the lack of big partnerships in his team’s six runs defeat.
