They are currently tied with Australia for 120 points, but their net run rate is slightly lower than that of their neighbors. Daryl Mitchell lost his wicket to debutant Umran Malik at the end of the 20th over, leaving New Zealand at 88/3. But when captain Kane Williamson, who was holding one end, was joined by Tom Latham, the two of them started putting pressure back on Indian bowlers. 

Latham struck a 76-ball century and scored 145* with 19 fours and 5 sixes, proving that Shikhar Dhawan and co.’s decision to use only five main bowlers was a mistake. The Kiwis, on the other hand, won with 17 balls to spare thanks to Kane Williamson’s 94*, which included 7 fours and 1 six. For his 145*, Latham was named Player of the Match.Latham and Williamson’s 221* run stand for the fourth wicket was the highest for that position in an ODI match between New Zealand and India. Additionally, this was only the second time New Zealand had defeated India by more than 300 runs in an ODI.They chased 348 runs in Hamilton in 2020, the first time.
