India is all set to face another formidable opponent in the Champions Trophy, as the Men in Blue take on New Zealand. So, what does the India vs New Zealand ODI head-to-head record say?
There is always hype around an India vs Pakistan game, and deservedly so, as fans from both countries come together to support their respective teams. However, in recent times, the major contest Indian fans eagerly anticipate is how the Men in Blue perform against New Zealand. Once again, India, who are thriving at the moment, will face the Black Caps in an ICC tournament- a stage where New Zealand has often posed a big challenge.
Although India broke the jinx in the last 50-over World Cup—dominating New Zealand in the group stage and then in the semi-final—there is no question that New Zealand is a team known for disciplined cricket. Time and again, they have proven to be a tough challenge for India, and all eyes will be on this clash. But what does the India vs New Zealand head-to-head record in ODIs say? Have they ever met in the ICC Champions Trophy? Let’s take a detailed look.
This is quite interesting, as these two cricketing giants have crossed paths only once in the tournament’s history. Surprisingly, their sole encounter took place in the final of the 2000 edition, then known as the ICC Knockout Tournament. Despite Sachin Tendulkar and Sourav Ganguly’s 141-run partnership, the Black Caps showcased remarkable resilience in the middle order, defying the odds. It was Chris Cairns (102), with valuable support from Chris Harris (46), that helped New Zealand clinch a thrilling victory and lift the trophy.
