India vs New Zealand ODI Squad Live Updates: The BCCI selectors will take some big calls as they zero in on the India vs New Zealand ODI series squad today. Wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant’s likely omission and the potential return of star pacer Mohammed Shami are the two major talking points that will headline the selection meeting. The three-match ODI series against New Zealand is the last bilateral contest for the Indian cricket team before the focus shifts to T20Is. The T20 World Cup starts on February 7, and all attention will be on that. India will play a five-match T20I series against New Zealand after the ODI series. The ODI series, therefore, might see Jasprit Bumrah and Hardik Pandya missing from action to keep them fresh for the T20Is. The ODI series against New Zealand starts in Vadodara on January 11, before the action moves to Rajkot (January 14) and Indore (January 18).
