Rain washes out 3rd ODI in Hamilton: India can't lose the series now; Shreyas Iyer to lead in the last two games
Not a ball was bowled at Seddon Park on 10 November, so India stay 2-0 up and New Zealand's 11-series home winning run is over.
- NZ's 11-series home streak ends
- 4th ODI: 13 November
- 5th ODI: 15 November
What happened
Shubman Gill won the toss and chose to bowl, and ground staff began removing covers for a 40-over game, but the rain came back. With the cut-off for a 20-over match approaching, the umpires called it off. With two matches left, New Zealand's best result is now a 2-2 draw.
Streak broken
The no-result ends New Zealand's run of 11 straight home ODI series wins. India won the first two games under the DLS method, by five wickets in Auckland and four runs in Wellington.
New captain
Gill and KL Rahul are expected to leave to prepare for the Tests, along with Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Siraj and Anshul Kamboj. Vice-captain Shreyas Iyer will lead India in the 4th ODI on 13 November and the finale on 15 November, both at Mount Maunganui in Tauranga.
