Kohli has a stellar ODI record at Seddon Park [Source: AFP]
India have captured the first two ODI matches against New Zealand and have taken a 2-0 lead in the series. While Gurnoor Brar was the star for India in the second ODI, it was Virat Kohli’s bat that did the talking in the first ODI and helped India win a tight contest.
Kohli has looked compact in the first two ODIs, and it was due to his brilliance that India managed to sneak a win in the first game of the series. He had a chance to reach a three-figure mark in Auckland, but the batter missed out.
Kohli, 38, now shifts his focus towards the all-important 3rd ODI, which takes place at Seddon Park, Hamilton. Ahead of the riveting battle between India and New Zealand, here is how the former Indian captain has performed at this venue in the 50-over format.
