A look at the first match: India won it by five wickets. Rain interrupted play, but India still won in the end to take the lead in the series.
Indian bowlers made a notable impression in the first match. New Zealand, who batted first, could not last their full 50 overs and were all out in 40.2 overs. The whole team made only 185 runs. India were set a target of 186, but rain disrupted the innings twice and the overs had to be reduced.
As a result, India needed 143 runs in 32 overs. The team reached the target in just 22.4 overs. Rohit Sharma was out for a duck without opening his account, which is a concern for the team.
On the other hand, Virat Kohli played a fine innings of 74 off 51 balls, with 13 fours and a six. Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer also batted well. Finally, Naman Dhir hit a four to win the match for India.
