India vs New Zealand 3rd ODI Hamilton live updates, Digi Mart USA News (Hamilton, New Zealand): Rain repeatedly interrupted the third one-day international between India and New Zealand at Seddon Park in Hamilton. The covers were returning just before the toss, and the match was later reduced to 40 overs per side following the delays.
India captain Shubman Gill won the toss and opted to field first. He said the team hoped the weather would clear and that they were better with the bat, adding that the on-and-off rain made the day difficult.
India retained the same playing XI.
New Zealand captain Mitchell Santner confirmed one change, with Matthew Fisher coming in for Blair Tickner. Santner said the pitch had been under covers for some time and was expected to offer some assistance to the bowlers, and he stressed the importance of assessing conditions early.
New Zealand have been dealing with injury setbacks. Lockie Ferguson has been ruled out of the final two ODIs with a right-calf tear, while Blair Tickner will also miss the next two games after a blow to his helmet in Wellington.
Kristian Clarke has been added as cover.
India leads the five-match series 2-0 after victories in Auckland and Wellington. Virat Kohli scored 74 in Auckland, and Gurnoor Brar took a career-best 4-30 in Wellington.
