The first ODI between India and New Zealand went in the hosts’ favour as they played a superb brand of cricket at Eden Park in Auckland. New Zealand captain Kane Williamson won the toss and invited India to bat first.
The visitors got off to a surreal start to the game in the form of Shikhar Dhawan and Shubman Gill. Both the batters added 124 runs for the first wicket before Gill departed for half-century.
Shikhar Dhawan scored 72 whereas Shreyas Iyer top-scored with 80 runs. On the other hand, Washington Sundar chipped in with a quickfire 37 off just 16 balls where he struck 3 fours and as many sixes.
