PREVIEW

The last time India played an ODI at the Holkar Stadium in September 2023, the batters stole the show. Shubman Gill’s 104 and Shreyas Iyer’s 105 propelled the home side to 399 and a 99-run win against Australia, underlining the venue’s reputation as a batting paradise.

Come Sunday, India will hope for a similar script. Gill, now captain, and Shreyas, returning after a serious injury, will be central to the hosts’ plans in the decider against a confident New Zealand at a ground that has historically favoured the batters.
