In the series‑deciding third One Day International at Holkar Stadium, Indore, New Zealand posted a commanding 337/8 in 50 overs, largely due to centuries by Daryl Mitchell (137) and Glenn Phillips (106) that resurrected their innings after early losses and set India a daunting 338‑run chase. Arshdeep Singh and Harshit Rana took three wickets each for India but couldn’t contain the Kiwi batsmen’s big partnership. India, chasing the target, lost early wickets and were under pressure during the run chase as they attempted to clinch the series. The match is drawing intense attention as both teams vie for victory in this decider. (PC: PTI)
