The third One Day International (ODI) match between India and New Zealand was abandoned on Tuesday due to persistent rainfall in Hamilton, leaving the visiting Indian side with an unassailable 2-0 advantage in the five-match series. The no-result outcome halted New Zealand's impressive streak of 11 consecutive home ODI series victories maintained since 2019. Rain caused initial delays before play could begin, prompting match officials to shorten the contest to 40 overs per side at the time of the toss. Indian captain Shubman Gill won the toss and elected to field first. However, continuous precipitation prevented any play from getting underway, and the umpires ultimately called off the match following multiple pitch and outfield inspections. The final two matches of the five-game ODI series will take place at Mount Maunganui on Friday and Sunday. Earlier on the tour, India secured a 3-2 victory in the preceding T20 International series.
