India can clinch its ODI series against New Zealand on Monday night, when the third game starts at 9 p.m. ET in Hamilton.
A win ends the series with two matches to spare, leaving an injury-hit New Zealand needing a victory to stay alive about a year before the 2027 Cricket World Cup.
Outside the United States, the match falls on Tuesday. First ball at Seddon Park, a day-night fixture, comes at 3 p.m. NZDT, which works out to 8 p.m. CT, 7 p.m. MT and 6 p.m. PT on Monday for American viewers. Fans in India wake up to a 7:30 a.m. IST on Tuesday start, with the toss around 7 a.m. In the United Kingdom, play begins at 2 a.m. GMT on Tuesday.

New Zealand vs. India Preview
India leads the five-match series 2-0 after a five-wicket win in Auckland on Nov. 4 and a four-run victory in Wellington on Nov. 7. Rain interrupted both games, so the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern method decided each result. A third loss would hand India the best-of-five series with two matches left to play.
More wet weather is in the forecast for Hamilton, and the surface favors seam bowling, according to Cricbuzz. That raises the importance of the toss. New Zealand has won its last 12 completed ODIs at Seddon Park. For the home side, it’s win the match or lose the series.
The tour sits roughly a year ahead of the 2027 Cricket World Cup, to be hosted in Africa with matches held across South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Namibia. Moisture, seam movement and rain delays have produced attritional, low-scoring cricket in place of the big totals common in the modern white-ball game, which gives both teams World Cup preparation in difficult conditions.
Shubman Gill captains India in this match, with Shreyas Iyer due to take over later in the series as Gill prepares for Test cricket. The pace attack is young (Anshul Kamboj, Auqib Nabi, Gurnoor Brar and Arshdeep Singh) and has performed well so far. The batting order leans on Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli at the top, with Iyer and KL Rahul behind them.
India is expected to keep its winning combination: Rohit Sharma, Gill (captain), Virat Kohli, Iyer, KL Rahul (wicketkeeper), Naman Dhir, Axar Patel, Kamboj, Nabi, Brar and Arshdeep Singh, in that batting order. Dhir and Patel could swap places, and Mohammed Siraj or Kuldeep Yadav could enter, though the younger pace group has been preferred to date.
Injuries dictate New Zealand’s selection. Blair Tickner has been stood down, Matt Henry targets a fourth ODI return and Lockie Ferguson is dealing with a calf issue. That leaves captain Mitchell Santner with this expected batting order, according to Cricinfo: Will Young, Tim Seifert, Henry Nicholls, Daryl Mitchell, Glenn Phillips, Tom Latham (wicketkeeper), Santner, Nathan Smith, Kyle Jamieson, Matt Fisher or Kristian Clarke, and Jacob Duffy.
Final lineups arrive at the toss. A New Zealand victory would cut the deficit to 2-1 and send the series to a fourth game with everything still open.
