NZ vs IND 3rd ODI Match Prediction & Betting Tips
The third and final ODI between New Zealand and India takes place on Wednesday afternoon in Christchurch. The first match was won by New Zealand at Eden Park, Auckland before rain forced an abandonment after less than 13 overs had been bowled in Hamilton in the second fixture. Read on as we preview this day-night ODI. The game gets underway at 14:30 local time at the Hagley Oval.
New Zealand have won 10 of 11 ODIs at the Hagley Oval and will fancy their chances of ending this series with another win. Their batting line-up is very strong in this format.
India have never played an ODI at this venue but have enough quality in their pace bowling attack to be a threat on this pitch. They will be looking to end the tour with a victory.

New Zealand Team News & Playing 11
NZ Team News
After being an unused squad member throughout the T20 World Cup and the recent IT20 series against India, all-rounder Michael Bracewell finally found his way back into the team ahead of the second ODI. It would be a big surprise if New Zealand chose a different XI for this final match of the series.
NZ Key Players
- Tom Latham - The 30 year old left-handed batter has played in over 200 internationals. He has hit 25 ODI scores over 50 in his career and has a particularly strong record at this venue.
- Kane Williamson - The skipper is one of the most consistent batters in the world across all formats. He has made more than 40 runs in each of his last five international innings.
- Lockie Ferguson - The pace bowler has his fitness carefully monitored but has gradually increased his workload over this year. He will enjoy bowling on this pitch.
NZ Team Form
New Zealand spent a large part of this year playing ODIs against the likes of Scotland, Ireland and Netherlands. However, they have played stronger teams of late and have won only one of their last five

IND Team News
There were two changes for India ahead of the second ODI with Deepak Chahar and Deepak Hooda coming into the side in place of Shardul Thakur and Sanju Samson. With only 12.5 overs possible on Sunday, we expect to see the same team selected for this game.
IND Key Players
- Shubman Gill - The right-hander hit 45 not out from 42 balls before the rain arrived in the last match. He has had an excellent 2022 and will enjoy the pace in the wicket in Christchurch.
- Shreyas Iyer - With the likes of Kohli, Sharma and Rahul out of the team, this game represents another opportunity for Iyer to dominate the batting for India.
- Umran Malik - The leading wicket takers in ODIs at this venue are all pace bowlers. Malik has shown that he can disturb top class batters and he will be looking forward to performing in this fixture.
IND Team Form
India have won two of their last five ODIs but overall have had plenty of success in this format during this year.
