India eye series win, middle order under watch
India got the job done in the opening game, but not without a few nervous moments. The top order provided a solid platform, yet the middle phase of the chase raised some concerns. The team management will expect a calmer approach this time, especially with the series on the line.
Captain Shubman Gill is likely to back his bowlers again after their impressive comeback once the ball got older. The bowling unit managed to pull things back well after New Zealand’s strong start in the first ODI.
New Zealand aim to level the series
Despite the loss, New Zealand had plenty of positives to take away. Both the batting and bowling units showed fight and pushed India harder than the final result suggested.
Led by Michael Bracewell, the visitors will be looking to grab key moments in the second ODI and convert pressure into results. A win in Rajkot would level the series and set up an exciting decider.
