Rain washes out third ODI in Hamilton with no ball bowled

The third ODI between India and New Zealand at Seddon Park, Hamilton, on Tuesday 10 November was abandoned without a ball being bowled after persistent rain. Shubman Gill won the toss and chose to bowl, with the match reduced to 40 overs a side, but the rain never relented and the umpires called the game off.

India kept an unchanged XI, while New Zealand brought in Matthew Fisher for the injured Blair Tickner. The series stays 2-0 to India, who can no longer lose it; the fourth ODI is in Tauranga on Friday 13 November.
