Kohli goes beyond Ponting, Sachin is next.

Crazy how many hundreds he gets, could easily end up with 60.

This will be a middling sort of target (by modern ODI standards, though this is not the easiest pitch to bat on). Should make for a very interesting match.

pitch is so slow, won't be easy to chase but it'll be hard to get wickets too

Defending against Kuldeep and Chahal on this pitch won't be easy. That's why getting a good start in the powerplay will be crucial, because NZ would want India with a slightly defensive mindset when spinners come. This is the sort of ground where defending against spinners is difficult because of the pitch, but attacking the spinners may be easier because of the small boundaries.

Winning will really matter when India tours South Africa, Australia and England. We are expected to win at home so that's no surprise.

Kohli and ODIs seem to have a spiritual relation. It's literally like he was born for that format.

India have struggled to go really big recently in ODIs imo

felt like against us in our backyard last time Sharma and Kohli would bop a few sixes and make it seem like they were in a t20 for that brief moment yet their totals ended up around 300 (when they could have been 350).

I think Dhoni's a big reason for this. Can't strike it too much over 100 anymore. Pandya obviously can fix this problem but eh can't rely on one bloke to slog at the death. Also Rohit is good at one awesome shot in between a whole lot of dots. Kohli obviously awesome at ODIs but needs better partners
