India will take on New Zealand in the fifth and final One-Day International (ODI) of the five-match series at the Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium, Visakhapatnam on Saturday. It’s the same ground where Indian captain MS Dhoni scored his maiden hundred by scoring 148 against Pakistan in 2005. So far, India have played five ODIs and have won four out of them at this venue. Both India and New Zealand are at same position in this series 2-2 but home advantage will surely come into act. The first game of the series, played at the picturesque location of Dharamsala, saw hosts India get across the line quite comfortably. Full Cricket Scorecard, India vs New Zealand, 5th ODI.
The second match at the capital city Delhi though was a cliff-hanger and went down to the wire, with New Zealand winning it by six runs and registering their first win on the tour in the process. The third ODI was quite interesting one as India won it by seven wickets and it was very well architect by captain Dhoni, by coming up in the batting order and Virat Kohli as well. The fourth game at at Ranchi, where India lost by 19 runs while chasing 260. Currently, toss has happen and India have won it and elected to bat first. Jayant Yadav has been given his debut ODI cap and Jasprit Bumrah is back in the side.
With the start of this fifth ODI, we present to you with the pick of the tweets from the micro-blogging site.

What is Ross Taylor offering this team? Seriously? He’s almost becoming a bigger liability than Guptill. At least Guptill can field #INDvNZ

Mandeep Singh already contributed more than Ross Taylor in the entire series, without even playing a single match. #IndvNz

Reasons for dismissals
Rahane: caught on leg side
Rohit: leg was hurting

Ridiculous wicket at #Vizag for the series decider. #INDvsNZ #NZvsIND

Kohli gone. Huge wicket and Pandey should take part of the blame for the shot he played earlier. NZ favourites now. #INDvNZ
— Sahil Oberoi (@SahilOberoi1) October 29, 2016
Up to Kedar Jadhav now, how badly he wants the captaincy for that Zimbabwe tour #INDvsNZ
— Gaurav Sethi (@BoredCricket) October 29, 2016
Rahane and Pandey didn’t take the chances they’ve got since Dhawan and Rahul were injured. Both faltered. #INDvNZ
— Athul (@athulpkrishnan) October 29, 2016
A poor sweep shot attempt of a straight delivery has got Dhoni leaving the finishing job again to Kohli. #indvsnz #indvnz

Whenever Virat Kohli departs without scoring a half century. We consider it as a failure.
That is the kind of impact he has made.#INDvNZ— Babar Latoo (@BabarLatoo) October 29, 2016
Gavaskar can remove the pants of player who balls the no ball but he calls a britisher lord who ruled us for so many years. #IndvsNZ #IndvNZ

When Gavaskar and Manjrekar come together in a commentary box, trust me, the cringe is real. #INDvNZ @StarSportsIndia #PleaseStepIn

After watching the running between the wicket of Virat-Dhoni, Indian railways should be ashamed of their train speed.

Ok, so Sunil Gavaskar didn’t know Kanjurmarg existed.
Vinod Kambli just cried, till Sanjay Manjrekar called him ‘legend’.#INDvNZ— Blessen Varghese (@blessenv) October 29, 2016

Strange, these last few minutes from Rohit Sharma. Wonder if he was hampered in strokeplay and wanted to make the most of the time he was in
