Hamilton: India and New Zealand are facing-off in the second ODI in Hamilton. This is a must win game for India they lost the first ODI by 7 wickets. New Zealand won the toss in the 2nd ODI and opted to bowl.

India made two changes to their playing XI and dropped Sanju Samson and Shardul Thakur. Deepak Hooda and Deepak Chahar were included in the team. The fans are upset over the shocking emission of Samson from the second ODI.

Samson had a decent outing in the first match and scored 36 runs while stitching a crucial partnership of 94 runs for the 5th wicket with Shreyas Iyer.

BCCI’s move to drop Samson can be understood by the fact that India have only five bowling options and Hooda adds depth to India’s bowling. The fans though believe that Hooda should have replaced Rishabh Pant.

India Playing XI: Shikhar Dhawan(c), Shubman Gill, Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant(w), Suryakumar Yadav, Deepak Hooda, Washington Sundar, Deepak Chahar, Umran Malik, Arshdeep Singh, Yuzvendra Chahal

New Zealand Playing XI: Finn Allen, Devon Conway, Kane Williamson(c), Daryl Mitchell, Tom Latham(w), Glenn Phillips, Mitchell Santner, Michael Bracewell, Matt Henry, Tim Southee, Lockie Ferguson
