The 25-year-old played a knock of 103 runs to enable India to post a score of 347/4 in the allotted fifty overs. He found support in wicket-keeper batsman KL Rahul and the duo put on 136 runs for the fourth wicket.
Rahul remained unbeaten on 88. However, the Men in Blue had to face disappointment as the Kiwis chased down the total with 11 balls to spare. Ross Taylor registered his 21st ODI ton to guide New Zealand to a four-wicket win. The experienced campaigner found support in Tom Latham (69) and Henry Nicholls (78). India and New Zealand will next take on each other in the second ODI on Saturday, February 8.
