ICC ODI Ranking: India become BEST WHITE-BALL Team in WORLD, Rohit Sharma & Co clean-sweep NewZealand for World No 1 rank in ODI, Follow LIVE Updates
A brilliant 212-run opening stand between Rohit Sharma (101) and Shubman Gill (112) set India up for a giant first-innings score of 385/9 in the first innings in Indore.
A late flurry from Hardik Pandya (54) and Shardul Thakur (25) helped boost the total, and the pair also played a key role with the ball.
Pandya bowled dangerous opener Finn Allen with just the second delivery of the chase, and Thakur picked up three quickfire wickets in the middle overs – including two in two balls – to effectively end New Zealand’s chances.
Even a stunning century from Kiwi opener Devon Conway wasn’t enough to deny India the win.
ICC ODI Rankings:
England, who had gained the top spot merely three days back following New Zealand’s loss to India in the second ODI, are now in second position, with New Zealand slipping to fourth spot.
Prior to Tuesday’s game, all three sides had been tied on 113 points, with their overall points the deciding differential.
But the latest result means that India are now first with 114 rating points, England sit at the second spot with 113 rating points, while Australia move up into third place with their 112 rating points. New Zealand have 111 rating points.
If England manage to win their upcoming ODI series against South Africa 3-0, they’ll displace India as the table toppers in the Men’s ODI rankings.
