In the third and decisive match played at Holkar Stadium in Indore, New Zealand won the series by defeating India by 41 runs.

What did Shubman Gill say after the match?
After the match, captain Shubman Gill accepted the defeat and said that the team’s performance in the decisive match was disappointing. He believed that after the series was tied at 1-1, India should have played better. Gill said that the team will now have to look back, think about the mistakes and improve itself for the future.
Praise for Virat and Harshit
Captain Gill praised Virat Kohli a lot and said that his form is always a big strength for the team. Apart from this, he also praised Harshit Rana, who scored a half-century at number eight. According to Gill, batting in the lower order is not easy, but Rana performed well under pressure. Nitish Kumar Reddy also played an important inning of 53 runs.
Talk about World Cup also
Shubman Gill made it clear that the team is trying some new players and combinations keeping the upcoming World Cup in mind. He said that players like Nitish Kumar Reddy are being given opportunities, so that they can get enough experience and the right combination can be prepared.
Kohli’s century went in vain
Chasing the big target of 338 runs, the Indian team appeared to be under pressure. Virat Kohli once again took up the responsibility and completed his 54th ODI century by scoring a brilliant century. However, apart from him, no other batsman could make a big partnership. The result was that the entire team was all out for 296 runs in 46 overs.
