India vs New Zealand ODI Squad Live Updates: The eagerly awaited India squad for the upcoming three-match ODI series against New Zealand is set to be revealed on January 3. With India having recently enjoyed considerable success, particularly with a 3-1 series victory over South Africa, they will enter this series as the clear favorites against the Black Caps.

This series marks an exciting opportunity for Shubman Gill, who was sidelined during the South Africa matches but is expected to make his return to the team. However, there are discussions around the potential rest for key players like Hardik Pandya and Jasprit Bumrah, as the coaching staff evaluates their workloads. Meanwhile, vice-captain Shreyas Iyer continues to focus on rehab at the BCCI Center of Excellence, which will keep him out of the series entirely. Additionally, cricket fans are hopeful about Mohammed Shami possibly rejoining the Indian lineup for this clash with New Zealand.

The ODI series will follow a previously announced five-match T20I series against New Zealand, featuring the same 15 players selected for the T20 World Cup. This continuity could be crucial as the teams face each other in both formats during this bilateral series.
