IND vs NZ ODI Series: The long limited overs series between India and New Zealand has started and the month of January is going to be full of excitement for cricket fans. The first match of the three-match ODI series was played in Vadodara, where Team India defeated New Zealand by 4 wickets in a close match. With this win, India has taken a 1-0 lead in the series, while two matches are still left.

This match of Vadodara was special in many ways. Let us tell you that this was the first One Day International match of this stadium and the interesting thing was that a high scoring match was seen here, both the teams touched the figure of 300. Now the thrill of the series will be seen in the next two cities, where fans will once again see the pair of ‘Ro-Ko’ i.e. Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli in action.

When and where will the remaining matches take place?

The second match of the ODI series between India and New Zealand will be played on 14 January 2026. This match will be held in Rajkot. After this, the third and last ODI of the series will be played on 18 January 2026 at Holkar Cricket Stadium, Indore. The ODI series will conclude with this match.

Now eyes on Rajkot

Most of the discussion regarding the second match of the series is around Virat Kohli. In Rajkot, Kohli will not only have a chance to break a big historical record against New Zealand, but he can also make the series more special with a memorable century. The Vadodara match may have been incomplete in terms of statistics, but it added another strong chapter to Kohli’s career—where victory, responsibility and records all looked very close to each other.

With the leadership of Shubman Gill and senior players like Rohit-Virat, the Indian team would like to win the series soon, whereas for New Zealand, this match will be like ‘do or die’. In such a situation, the Rajkot match may prove to be decisive in the direction of the series.
