That brings us to the end of our coverage of the three-match ODI series between India and New Zealand with the Men in Blue continuing their dominance at home with another series sweep. Onto the T20Is next, starting with the first game in Ranchi on Friday.

A big thank you to everyone who tuned into our live coverage. On behalf of my colleagues at Firstpost, this is Amit signing off, wishing you all a good night!

Did you know?

21:11 (IST)

India back on top

With the 90-run win, Team India are back at the top of the ICC ODI rankings, going past England. And given how they performed in this series, especially in the next two games after the scare in the series opener at Hyderabad, there is little doubt as to whether the Men in Blue deserve the top spot or not.

20:58 (IST)

IND vs NZ LIVE Score

OUT! Santner goes out with a bang, smashing a few fours and sixes before holing out to Kohli at cow corner off Chahal's bowling. And with that, Team India win by 90 runs and complete an emphatic 3-0 sweep of the ODI seriers!

India vs New Zealand 3rd ODI LIVE Score

SIX! Santner decides to have some fun at the Indians' expense with the target well beyond the Black Caps' reach now. Goes for the golf swing that sends the ball flying over long on. He moves to 25 with that hit. NZ 286/9

20:52 (IST)

India vs New Zealand 3rd ODI LIVE

OUT! And now Yuzvendra Chahal is among the wickets, trapping Jacob Duffy LBW for a two-ball duck, leaving the Men in Blue needing just one more wicket to collect a big win and a series sweep. NZ 280/9

Duffy LBW Chahal 0(2)

20:47 (IST)

India vs New Zealand LIVE Cricket Score

OUT! What a grab by Rohit, pulling off a one-handed catch at midwicket after a tame chip by Ferguson as Kuldeep grabs his third wicket. The Indian skipper just stuck his right hand out and the ball somehow remained glued to his palm in the end. NZ 279/8

Ferguson c Rohit b Kuldeep 7(12)

20:39 (IST)

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score

OUT! Ishan Kishan had been having a rough day behind the stumps, but makes absolutely no mistake this time! Pulls off a neat piece of stumping after Kuldeep Yadav fires one wide down the leg side. Michael Bracewell, New Zealand's last hope for victory, was charging down the track looking to smash the left-arm wrist spinner for a big hit, but ends up getting stumped by a mile. NZ 269/7

20:34 (IST)

IND vs NZ LIVE Cricket Score

After 36 overs,New Zealand 267/6 ( Michael Bracewell 26 , Mitchell Santner 14)

Sundar continues to bleed runs aplenty, going for 12 runs after being brought in place of Malik with Bracewell and Santner collecting a six and a four respectively. And just like that, Bracewell and Santner have added 37 for the seventh wicket with the required rate still very much under check.

20:27 (IST)

IND vs NZ LIVE Score

After 34 overs,New Zealand 246/6 ( Michael Bracewell 17 , Mitchell Santner 6)

Malik's a touch expensive in his seventh over, conceding two boundaries in three deliveries to Bracewell after starting off with a wide down the leg side. Once again, the extra pace on offer along with the short boundaries and the ball still coming on to the bat nicely. New batter Mitchell Santner, meanwhile, got off the mark with a maximum in the previous over, bowled by Hardik Pandya.

20:12 (IST)

India vs New Zealand 3rd ODI LIVE Score

OUT! Massive blow to New Zealand's hopes, as Umran Malik removes Devon Conway, who pulls straight into Rohit Sharma's hands at short midwicket. Conway had been dishing out fours and sixes despite dealing with cramps, but ended up getting dismissed in a rather tame fashion in the end. Receives a well-deserved ovation on his way back to the Black Caps dressing room. NZ 230/6

Conway c Rohit b Malik 138(100)

20:08 (IST)

India vs New Zealand 3rd ODI LIVE

After 31 overs,New Zealand 228/5 ( Devon Conway 137 , Michael Bracewell 8)

Rohit brings Pandya back into the attack in the 31st over, replacing Sundar. The all-rounder, though, is off to an expensive start in the new spell, conceding a boundary each to Conway and Bracewell in an 11-run over, the latter pulling a short-of-length delivery in front of square that nearly clears the wide long on fence. Umpire signals drinks at the end of the over.

19:59 (IST)

India vs New Zealand LIVE Cricket Score

After 29 overs,New Zealand 212/5 ( Devon Conway 130 , Michael Bracewell 1)

Thakur nearly collects a fourth wicket after removing Phillips, with new batter Bracewell too mistiming a pull. Luckily for him, the ball falls in no-man's land near mid on. Conway, meanwhile, continues to attack the Indian bowlers at will the following over, smashing Sundar for a six and a four off consecutive balls after the off-spinner is brought back into the attack in place of Umran Malik, resulting in a 12-run over for the Kiwis.

19:56 (IST)

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score

OUT! Third wicket for Shardul Thakur in a space of 10 deliveries as Glenn Phillips perishes while looking for a big hit. Gets a thick top-edge off an attempted pull, and Virat Kohli charges towards the ball to complete the catch near the mid on region. NZ 200/5

Phillips c Kohli b Thakur 5(7)

19:49 (IST)

IND vs NZ LIVE Cricket Score

FOUR! FOUR! Devon Conway gives the Indians a reminder of the threat that his presence at the crease poses to them, collecting back-to-back boundaries to close out a double-wicket over for Shardul Thakur. India skipper Rohit Sharma isn't happy and has a quick word with Thakur. NZ 193/4

19:41 (IST)

IND vs NZ LIVE Score

OUT! Two-in-two for Shardul Thakur as New Zealand skipper Tom Latham ends up chipping a knuckle ball straight to Hardik Pandya at mid off! India are back in the contest and how! NZ 184/4

Latham c Pandya b Thakur 0(1)

19:40 (IST)

India vs New Zealand 3rd ODI LIVE Score

OUT! Thakur bounces Mitchell out to break the third-wicket stand worth 78, though the Indians have to take it upstairs after on-field umpire Jayaraman Madangopal initially rules it not out. UltraEdge shows a faint spike when the ball is passing by Mitchell's glove, and that is evidence enough for the TV Umpire to overturn the on-field decision. Mitchell, though, doesn't look entirely happy with that. NZ 184/3

Mitchell c Kishan b Thakur 24(31)

19:35 (IST)

India vs New Zealand 3rd ODI LIVE

After 25 overs,New Zealand 184/2 ( Devon Conway 108 , Daryl Mitchell 24)

New Zealand are back on track after the slowdown enforced by Kuldeep and Chahal, thanks primarily to Conway collecting fours and sixes at regular intervals that have helped the Black Caps collect 48 runs in the last five overs. New Zealand are very much in the contest at the halfway mark of their chase.

19:30 (IST)

India vs New Zealand LIVE Cricket Score

SIX! SIX! Devon Conway brings up his third ODI hundred in style with near-identical slog-sweeps over the midwicket/cow-corner region off Yuzvendra Chahal in the 24th over. What a knock this has been from the left-handed opener, who is fighting on despite appearing to suffer from cramps, keeping the Black Caps alive in the contest in the process. NZ 172/2

19:20 (IST)

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score

After 22 overs,New Zealand 151/2 ( Devon Conway 80 , Daryl Mitchell 20)

FOUR! A release shot for Daryl Mitchell, who was under a lot of pressure to accelerate after getting off to a slow start. Rocks back and pulls in front of square, finding the vacant cow corner fence, off Yuzvendra Chahal's bowling.

19:14 (IST)

IND vs NZ LIVE Cricket Score

After 20 overs,New Zealand 136/2 ( Devon Conway 72 , Daryl Mitchell 13)

New Zealand have managed to keep themselves afloat with Devon Conway collecting the odd boundary to keep New Zealand's run-rate as close to seven as possible. Daryl Mitchell, meanwhile, is off to a start similar to that of Ishan Kishan earlier today, and is batting on 13 off 17 at the end of the 20th.

19:00 (IST)

After 17 overs,New Zealand 119/2 ( Devon Conway 62 , Daryl Mitchell 7)

The umpire signals drinks at the end of the 17th over. Conway, who had escaped a stumping opportunity in Chahal's first over, has now moved into the 60s.

18:59 (IST)

IND vs NZ LIVE Score

After 16 overs,New Zealand 113/2 ( Devon Conway 58 , Daryl Mitchell 5)

The spinners bring India back in the game. While Kuldeep breaks the solid second-wicket stand by trapping Nicholls LBW, Chahal nearly gets Conway stumped after being introduced into the attack in the 16th over, with Kishan making a mess of a stumping opportunity that was handed to him on a platter. Conway, who earlier brought up his half-century with a six off Sundar, will hope to make the most of the lifeline handed to him and convert this into a big score.

18:53 (IST)

India vs New Zealand 3rd ODI LIVE Score

OUT! Kuldeep Yadav with the breakthrough! Traps Henry Nicholls leg-before with the wrong'un and the southpaw ends up burning a review on his way back to the pavilion, getting three reds on HawkEye after what essentially was a desperate call. NZ 106/2

Nicholls LBW Kuldeep 42(40)

18:52 (IST)

India vs New Zealand 3rd ODI LIVE

After bringing up his half-century in the previous over, Conway collects a brace at the start of Kuldeep's second over to bring up the century partnership with Nicholls for the second wicket. NZ 101/1

18:45 (IST)

India vs New Zealand LIVE Cricket Score

SIX! Devon Conway brings up his fourth ODI half-century in style, getting down on one knee and slog-sweeping a full delivery from Washington Sundar towards the midwicket fence. Takes 41 balls to bring up the milestone. NZ 98/1

18:44 (IST)

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score

After 13 overs,New Zealand 90/1 ( Devon Conway 43 , Henry Nicholls 41)

The Indians have been tidy since the start of the second powerplay, with 17 coming off the last three, none of them through fours and sixes. Rohit, meanwhile, opts for spin from both ends with left-arm wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav replacing Umran Malik in the 13th over and conceding five singles in his first over.

18:32 (IST)

IND vs NZ LIVE Cricket Score

After 10 overs,New Zealand 73/1 ( Devon Conway 36 , Henry Nicholls 32)

End of the first powerplay of the New Zealand chase, with the visitors making a fine comeback after losing the wicket of Finn Allen early. Henry Nicholls and Devon Conway have added 73 runs for the second wicket so far, and certainly are looking quite ominous from the home team's perspective.

18:30 (IST)

IND vs NZ LIVE Score

After 9 overs,New Zealand 68/1 ( Devon Conway 34 , Henry Nicholls 29)

Umran Malik is introduced in the ninth over as Hardik Pandya is given a breather after a four-over spell that got India an early breakthrough. The Sunrisers pacer starts off on a tidy note, conceding just two singles in the first four deliveries before Conway smacks the ball over his head to collect his fourth over. Conway then rubs salt on the wound by collecting a maximum the very next ball off an outside edge, the ball just about landing beyond the rope at deep backward point.

18:26 (IST)

India vs New Zealand 3rd ODI LIVE Score

FOUR! Now where did that come from? Conway takes a couple of steps forward and ends up playing something of a leaping pull towards the midwicket fence to pile further misery on Thakur. NZ 55/1

18:21 (IST)

India vs New Zealand 3rd ODI LIVE

SIX! Cheeky from Nicholls as he goes for a scoop shot, dispatching a full delivery from Thakur over the fine leg fence to bring up the fifty-partnership for the second wicket. NZ 50/1

18:16 (IST)

India vs New Zealand LIVE Cricket Score

SIX! Lovely from Conway. Leans into a length ball from Pandya and flicks it over deep midwicket to collect his first maximum of the evening. NZ 44/1
 

18:13 (IST)

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score

After 6 overs,New Zealand 36/1 ( Devon Conway 12 , Henry Nicholls 21)

Shardul Thakur replaces Washington Sundar, but is off to an expensive start as he ends up getting smacked for a six and a four off consecutive deliveries by Henry Nicholls, who has stitched a promising second-wicket stand with Devon Conway in quick time.

18:04 (IST)

IND vs NZ LIVE Cricket Score

After 4 overs,New Zealand 20/1 ( Devon Conway 11 , Henry Nicholls 6)

Conway and Nichollas are starting to fight back after Allen's early dismissal, using the fielding restrictions to collect boundaries and settle the nerves in the Kiwi dugout. Nichollas collects the first boundary of the innings in Pandya's second over while Conway makes good use of his feet to collect two fours off Sundar in the off-spinner's second over.

18:02 (IST)

India vs New Zealand 3rd ODI LIVE Score

FOUR! Nicholls shuffles a long way across to his left, exposing all three stumps, and tickles at the length ball from Pandya and beating the diving Kishan to collect the first boundary of the innings. NZ 12/1

18:00 (IST)

India vs New Zealand 3rd ODI LIVE

After 2 overs,New Zealand 7/1 ( Devon Conway 2 , Henry Nicholls 2)

Excellent start for the Indians in their defence of the 385-run total, with Hardik Pandya taking just two deliveries to get his name in the wickets column. Rohit Sharma then decides to start with offie Washington Sundar from the other end, and the Tamil Nadu all-rounder, concedes just two off his first. Henry Nicholls joins Devon Conway at the centre after Finn Allen's dismissal.

17:56 (IST)

India vs New Zealand LIVE Cricket Score

BOWLED! Hardik Pandya with the early breakthrough after helping India get within touching distance of the 400-mark with a fighting half-century, as Finn Allen ends up chopping a rising delivery onto the stumps to depart for a two-ball duck. NZ 0/1

Allen b Pandya 0(2)

17:53 (IST)

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score

Finn Allen and Devon Conway walk out to begin New Zealand's chase of the daunting 386-run target. The highest ODI target successfully chased in India happens to be 362, and the Kiwis will have to produce quite the performance if they're to top India's batting performance. Hardik Pandya to open the bowling for the Men in Blue.

17:19 (IST)

Especially on this belter of a surface where India should have comfortably brought up 400
 

17:18 (IST)

India vs New Zealand 3rd ODI LIVE

After 50 overs,India 385/9 ( Umran Malik 2 , )

Tickner and Duffy concede 15 each in the 48th and 49th over, the latter finishing with figures of 3/100 at the end of his quota to produce one of the most expensive spells ever in the ODI format. What Duffy does, however, is dismiss Pandya in his final over, which ends up saving 15-20 runs for the Black Caps and prevents India from breaching the 400 mark. Lockie Ferguson bowls out an excellent final over, with just three runs coming off it and Kuldeep Yadav getting run out off the last ball.

Kuldeep run out (Latham/Ferguson) 3(3)

17:06 (IST)

India vs New Zealand LIVE Cricket Score

OUT! Pandya fails to stay at the crease till the very end. Much like Surya, fails to get any timing while looking to go big over long on. It was a slower ball from Jacob Duffy that induced a mishit from the Indian vice-captain. IND 379/8

Pandya c Conway b Duffy 54(38)

17:03 (IST)

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score

Fifty up for Hardik Pandya off just 36 deliveries, the Indian ODI vice-captain bringing up the milestone with a brace off Jacob Duffy after having collected a six in the previous delivery. Superb innings from Pandya, one that has brought the Men in Blue back on their feet. IND 375/7

17:02 (IST)

IND vs NZ LIVE Cricket Score

OUT! Shardul Thakur's entertaining cameo comes to an end as he ends up offering keeper and skipper Tom Latham a simple catch while looking to ramp a full delivery from Blair Tickner towards fine leg. Stitched a valuable 54-run stand with Hardik Pandya along the way. IND 367/7

Thakur c Latham b Tickner 25(17)

16:56 (IST)

IND vs NZ LIVE Score

After 47 overs,India 352/6 ( Hardik Pandya 34 , Shardul Thakur 18)

Jacob Duffy goes for 17 runs in his penultimate over! A big one for the Indians, just what they would've hoped for after the slide in the middle-overs. Pandya collects a six off the first ball with a majestic inside-out loft and follows it up with a pull towards the midwicket fence three balls later. Thakur then slices the ball behind square on the off side off the last ball to end the over with a boundary. Ferguson then goes for 10 in the following over, with Thakur collecting his third boundary as the Men in Blue go past the 350 mark with three overs left.

16:50 (IST)

India vs New Zealand 3rd ODI LIVE Score

After 45 overs,India 325/6 ( Hardik Pandya 18 , Shardul Thakur 8)

Shardul Thakur arrives at the crease after Sundar's exit, gets off the mark right away with a single and later collects a boundary off a crisp drive off the last ball of the over. Santner and Tickner keep it tidy in the next two overs, with a total of six runs being added to the Indian total. Five more overs to go, and Pandya and Thakur will hope to get India as close to the 400-mark as they can.

16:39 (IST)

India vs New Zealand 3rd ODI LIVE

OUT! The wickets continue to tumble, the Black Caps once again striking just when a partnership appears to be blossoming. This time it's Sundar who gets the marching orders after mishitting a short-of-length delivery from Tickner outside off towards point where Mitchell holds on after peddling a few steps backwards. IND 313/6

Sundar c Mitchell b Tickner 9(14)

16:37 (IST)

India vs New Zealand LIVE Cricket Score

After 42 overs,India 312/5 ( Hardik Pandya 13 , Washington Sundar 9)

Duffy's a touch expensive in his eighth over, going for 11 runs with Sundar and Pandya both collecting a boundary each, the latter moving to double figures in the process. Santner returns to the attack the following over and concedes just three singles in his penultimate over.

16:34 (IST)

India vs New Zealand LIVE Score

After 40 overs,India 298/5 ( Hardik Pandya 5 , Washington Sundar 3)

End of the second powerplay of the Indian innings, with the New Zealand attack staging an admirable fightback to snare five wickets for 81 runs after the 212-run opening partnership between Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill. India are two shy of the 300-mark; will take quite the effort to get past 400 from here.

India vs New Zealand 3rd ODI preview: After two consecutive wins, India will be looking for a 3-0 clean sweep with a win in the third and final ODI on Tuesday which will be played at the Holkar Cricket Stadium in Indore. India had beaten Sri Lanka by the same margin in a three-match ODI series earlier this month and another clean sweep will make it two in two for Men in Blue.

India won the firts ODI by 12 runs. It was close affair as Michael Bracewell scored a century and Kiwis gave a tough fight after Shubman Gill made 208 and India scored 349. The second ODI also went to hosts by eight wickets as New Zealand were bowled out for 108 batting first.

India look set for a 3-0 in Indore but just in case the top order fails the pressure would come on the middle-order which hasn’t done very well recently, and haven’t had too many chances either. While it will be a big test, India would want their middle order to get tested and come out victorious as they fine-tune the squad for 2023 ODI World Cup.

Squads:

India: Rohit Sharma (Captain), Shubman Gill, Ishan Kishan (wk), Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar, Suryakumar Yadav, KS Bharat (wk), Hardik Pandya (vice-captain), Washington Sundar, Shahbaz Ahmed, Shardul Thakur, Yuzvendra Chahal, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Shami, Mohammed Siraj, Umran Malik.

New Zealand: Tom Latham (captain), Finn Allen, Doug Bracewell, Michael Bracewell, Mark Chapman, Devon Conway, Jacob Duffy, Lockie Ferguson, Daryl Mitchell, Henry Nicholls, Glenn Phillips, Mitchell Santner, Henry Shipley, Ish Sodhi, Blair Tickner.
