IND vs NZ 3rd ODI Preview: Indore

The 2026 ODI series between India and New Zealand has reached a fever pitch. After a clinical win for India in Vadodara and a spectacular Daryl Mitchell-led comeback for the Blackcaps in Rajkot, the series stands level at 1-1.

All roads now lead to the Holkar Stadium in Indore for the third and final ODI—a venue legendary for being a "bowlers' graveyard" and a "batters' paradise." Here is everything you need to know ahead of the series decider.

Match Overview

Fixture: India vs New Zealand, 3rd ODI
Date: Sunday, January 18, 2026
Time: 1:30 PM IST (Toss at 1:00 PM)
Venue: Holkar Cricket Stadium, Indore

India

India was forced into a change in the 2nd ODI after Washington Sundar was ruled out with a rib injury. Nitish Kumar Reddy filled the all-rounder slot and is likely to keep his place. The management may consider resting a pacer for fresh legs, but given it’s a decider, they are expected to go with their strongest available XI.

New Zealand

The Kiwis are flying high on confidence. Daryl Mitchell is in the form of his life, and Will Young (87 in the last game) has provided much-needed stability at the top. Debutant Jayden Lennox was impressive with his control and is likely to retain his spot.

The Verdict

New Zealand has never won a bilateral ODI series in India. They have the momentum, but India is notoriously difficult to beat in a home series decider. Expect a high-scoring thriller where the boundary ropes will be under constant threat.
