Eden Park ODI records India: Auckland Stadium India all match ODI result list

Stand-in ODI captain Shikhar Dhawan will yet again lead team India in a three-match ODI series, against New Zealand, the first match of which will take place at the Eden Park in Auckland tomorrow (Friday).

While India will yet again field a second-string playing XI sans the likes of Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Rohit Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja, or a Jasprit Bumrah, New Zealand will be without the services of Trent Boult, Ish Sodhi, and Martin Guptill.

The last ODI at the Eden Park was also an India-New Zealand fixture, which took place back in February 2020 when the hosts emerged victorious by 22 runs.

Despite insisting on the fact that he does not take his place in the ODI team for granted, focus will be on Dhawan, who not only had an average home ODI series versus South Africa last month, but has also not scored a century in the format since June 2019.

Moreover, the Southpaw has batted at a poor strike rate of 75 in the format this year, which is his lowest since 2013. With a host of top-order/ openers ready to perform at his spot, the 36-year-old needs to have a decent series this time around.
