IND vs NZ, 1st ODI Live Updates: Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill stitched together a 50-run partnership before the skipper departed for an attacking 34. Virat Kohli also did not last long as Mitchell Santner picked up the prized scalp. India are facing New Zealand in the first ODI at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium in Hyderabad. Earlier, Rohit Sharma had won the toss and opted to bat first against the Kiwis. India make three changes as Hardik Pandya, Ishan Kishan and Shardul Thakur replace KL Rahul, Axar Patel and Shreyas Iyer. The Rohit Sharma-led side will be high on confidence after defeating Sri Lanka comprehensively in the recently concluded series. Virat Kohli was the wrecker-in-chief for India with two brilliant centuries. On the other hand, the Kiwis will have a tough time with Ish Sodhi, Tim Southee, Kane Williamson and Trent Boult all unavailable for the first match of the series. The visitors, however, are oozing with confidence, after toppling Pakistan last week.(LIVE SCORECARD)
