India vs New Zealand 3rd ODI Match Playing 11: Will Mohammed Siraj get a look-in at Hamilton

India, already 2-0 up in the 5-match ODI series, will look to seal the deal on Tuesday as they take on hosts New Zealand in Hamilton. While Test regulars like captain Shubman Gill, KL Rahul, and Kuldeep Yadav are set to leave the team after this match to prepare for the longest format, expect India to stick with the same combination that has won them the first two matches.

While Virat Kohli showed his mettle in the 1st ODI at Auckland, the other senior player, Rohit Sharma, is yet to get out of first gear. Rohit has scored 0 and 23 in the first two matches respectively and will be desperate to turn things around as the 2027 World Cup draws near. Also, Mohammed Siraj is unlikely to get a look in with the young India pace battery doing pretty well in the series.

The Kiwis, meanwhile, will have a forced change with Matt Fisher replacing Blair Tickner, who was ruled out of the next two matches after suffering a concussion in the second game. He might be back in time for the 5th match, though. Barring that, the BlackCaps will likely retain the same lineup.
