New Zealand captain Kane Williamson won the toss and elected to field first against India in the first of three-match ODI series at Eden Park on Friday.
Opener Shikhar Dhawan will be leading the side in absence of other seniors like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul. Men in Blue had won the rain-affected three-match T20I series by 1-0. The Kiwis, on the other hand, have left out Trent Boult and Martin Guptill - two seasoned campaigners. Adam Milne, who last played an ODI in October 2017, is likely to make it to the playing XI.
