Dream11 fantasy XI tips and guide for the 2nd ODI of the India vs New Zealand ODI series 2026 between IND vs NZ to be played in Rajkot.

Team India recorded a comfortable win over New Zealand (IND vs NZ) in the first ODI in Vadodara. Fans witnessed another brilliant innings from Virat Kohli in an ODI chase. He played a good knock and also became the fastest to complete 28,000 international runs.

But he missed his century by seven runs. When he got out, India faced a bit of difficulty, but KL Rahul once again finished the match spectacularly. With a 1-0 lead, India will take on New Zealand in the second ODI on Wednesday.

This contest will be held at Niranjan Shah Stadium in Rajkot, starting at 1:30 PM IST. New Zealand did fight well, but they couldn’t put this experienced Indian side under pressure. Hence, the tourists will be looking for some improvement and will challenge the Indian side in the second game.
