- Scorecard: India vs NZ, 1st ODI
Play resumed in the first One-Day International between India and New Zealand but the match has been reduced to 38 overs per side.
India were 27 for no loss in 4.3 overs with Virender Sehwag (23) and Sachin Tendulkar (3) at the crease when rain had halted the play at McClean Park in Napier on Tuesday.
As per the revised conditions, three bowlers can now bowl eight overs and two can bowl seven.
The compulsory first Powerplay will be of eight overs, and second, chosen by the fielding side, will be of four overs.
The third and the last Powerplay, to be chosen by the batting side, has been reduced to three overs.
Earlier, India had won the toss and elected to bat. Pacer Ishant Sharma was rested after injuring his shoulder during the second Twenty20 International against New Zealand. He was replaced by Praveen Kumar, while Munaf Patel took the place of Irfan Pathan.
Sachin Tendulkar, who missed out on the last two one-dayers against Sri Lanka, also returns to the Indian team.
