India vs New Zealand, 3rd ODI: Toss result and playing XIs for today's match, umpires list and pitch report 

Team India will look to complete another whitewash in a bilateral series at home when they take on New Zealand at the Holkar Cricket Stadium in Indore on Tuesday, January 24.

While the game is a dead rubber on paper, there is plenty at stake, especially for India. Apart from the match being another preparation for the ODI World Cup, which will be played in India later in the year, they also have a chance to claim the No. 1 spot in the official ODI rankings.

The Men in Blue have been dominant in the series so far. Barring a phase in the first match, where Michael Bracewell and Mitchell Santner gave the hosts a scare with a terrific partnership, India have been all over the Kiwis. While New Zealand competed to an extent in the first game, they were blown away in Raipur, going down by eight wickets.

The performance of veteran pacer Mohammed Shami in the second ODI was a big plus as he had some underwhelming games before that. Kuldeep Yadav and Mohammed Siraj have continued their good form. The batting has also been in fine nick.

Today's IND vs New Zealand pitch report

According to Ajit Agarkar, there was some joy in Raipur for Indian seamers upfront, but it’s unlikely to be the case in Indore. If you look at the pitch, there’s a nice even cover of grass in the middle to hold it together. As the evening progresses, the ball will only skid on better. Bare patches closer to the batters, but it’s not going to matter as the pitch is very firm.
