After a dismal performance in the India v New Zealand Test series, the visitors would be looking to put on a better show in the ODI series to regain their No.3 spot in ICC rankings. A whitewash will put them ahead of South Africa and decimal points below the no.1 side Australia. Team India on the other side, has rested few of their regular players.

With just 8 ODIs in hand for India before the Champions Trophy next year, they have a lot to take away from this series. India would look to make most of these 5 games in order to build a team for the ICC event. Ahead of the series, we look at the approaching milestones of the players and the head to head records between the two sides.

0.454 – New Zealand’s win/loss ratio in ODIs in India. Their lowest in a country in which they played more than 25 ODIs.

1 – Amit Mishra needs one more wicket to complete 50 ODI wickets.

4 – Number of bilateral ODI series in which India and New Zealand featured in India. All the 4 have been won by India.

4 – India have won in their last 4 ODIs. 1 vs Australia and 3 against Zimbabwe.

4 – Luke Ronchi needs to affect 4 more dismissals as wicketkeeper to complete 100 dismissals behind the stumps in ODIs.

156 – Martin Guptill needs 156 runs to complete 5000 runs in ODI cricket.
