2014 New Zealand Vs India Fifth ODI Wellington Friday Jan 31,2014

 India is touring New Zealand to play 5-ODI's and 2 Test Matches

The tour of New Zealand will start with the first ODI in Napier, followed by matches in Hamilton (January 22 and January 28), Auckland (January 25) and Wellington (January 31).

Indians will play a two-day warm-up match in Whangharei from February 2, followed by the two-match Test series in Auckland (February 6 to 10) and Wellington (February 14 to 18)

All-rounder Yuvraj Singh was on Tuesday axed from India’s ODI squad owing to his poor performance in South Africa and was replaced by Stuart Binny — son of former India all-rounder Roger Binny.

Another surprise inclusion in the team was Madhya Pradesh seamer Ishwar Pandey, who has been drafted into both the ODI and Test squad

Varun Aaron(24)has made a comeback to the ODI squad replacing Mohit Sharma, who failed to impress in South Africa

The Test team was not altered too much with Ishwar’s inclusion instead of Pragyan Ojha being the only change made to the 17-member squad for the two-match series against the Kiwis starting February 10 in Auckland after a two-day practice match.

New Zealand Herald described the 4-0 rout of India the best in the country's cricketing history.
"Tales of New Zealand cricketing triumph tend to be rare.
The 4-0 one-day international series victory over world champions India is the best in the sport's shorter forms since the 3-0 Chappell-Hadlee trophy defeat of then-world champions Australia in February 2007," the report said.

New Zealand coach Mike Hesson on Saturday Feb 01,2014 said his side never thought of routing a quality team like India 4-0 in the just-concluded ODI series and felt the unexpected triumph would be a confidence booster for the Black Caps in the two-match Test series
