New Delhi. Indian batsmen failed to score big in the third ODI against New Zealand in Christchurch on Wednesday and the entire team returned to the pavilion after scoring 219 runs in 47.3 overs. Indian captain Shikhar Dhawan and Shubman Gill gave the team a slow but steady start. In the 9th over, Gill was dismissed by fast bowler Adam Milne.

He played an inning of 50 runs in 65 balls. At the same time, in the second ODI canceled due to rain, the Indian opener scored an unbeaten 45 in 42 balls.
