New Zealand Stuns India 2-1 in ODI Series with Historic Indore Win

  • New Zealand defeated India by 41 runs at Holkar Stadium, Indore, securing a 2-1 ODI series victory.
  • This marks India's first-ever home ODI series loss to New Zealand, starting 2026 on a dismal note.
  • Daryl Mitchell (137) and Glenn Phillips (106) powered New Zealand to 337/8 with a 219-run partnership.
  • Virat Kohli scored his 54th ODI century (100) in a valiant but ultimately losing effort for India.
  • Arshdeep Singh (3/63) and Harshit Rana (3/84) were India's key wicket-takers, while Kristian Clarke and Zak Foulkes troubled Indian batters.

Why It Matters: New Zealand secured a historic 2-1 ODI series win against India on Indian soil, despite Kohli's century.
