India vs New Zealand 4th ODI Match Prediction

India, having already clinched the series, will now enter for the inconsequential matches against New Zealand. The Seddon Park, Hamilton will be the venue for the 4th ODI. While India would look to test the bench strength, New Zealand will hope to restore some pride. Keep reading to find out India vs New Zealand 4th ODI Match Prediction.

Before the start of the series, we expected a tight contest between India and New Zealand. The Men in Blue were coming after the historic victory in Australia. On the other hand, the Kiwis had given a hammering to Sri Lanka and extended their winning run at home. But opposite to the expectations, the hosts have surrendered to the might of Indians.

The Indian batting has proved to be too strong on all 3 occasions. But it’s been the spinners that have played the decisive role. The inadequacy of the Kiwi batsmen against spin has been exposed heavily. Now that India has already won the series with a scoreline of 3-0, they would bring in the changes but the premier focus will be to make it 5-0 under the stand-in captain Rohit Sharma.
