India vs New Zealand ODI records 2022: IND vs NZ ODI head to head records and stats

The second and final leg of India’s tour of New Zealand 2022 will begin in the form of a three-match ODI series beginning at the Eden Park from tomorrow. Scheduled to begin within a year, the first ODI will officially commence ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 preparations for both the teams.

Having played each other in other formats of late, this series will resume New Zealand-India ODI rivalry after 33 months. As far 2022 is concerned, New Zealand and India have played only a couple of T20Is of the recently concluded series against each other.

Although New Zealand will take the field with a full-strength Playing XI, India will continue to play international cricket in the absence of several first-choice players. The development has once again brought veteran opening batter Shikhar Dhawan into the limelight as captain for his fourth ODI series (third away from home).

Historically, India have fared better against New Zealand in this format. Having said that, the Black Caps have outplayed India both at home and in Auckland. It is worth mentioning that India haven’t defeated New Zealand in an ODI for over 45 months now.
