Are They Conducting The Series In Cherrapunji, New Zealand: Discussions Are Active On Social Media: The second match of the India-New Zealand ODI series has been abandoned due to rain. With this, the Indian dreams of returning to the series despite losing the first match have been clouded.
With the abandonment of the second match, India will no longer be able to win the series. India can try to win the third match and draw the series.
Before this, rain had become the villain in the T20 series as well. Both matches of the three-match series were rained out.
Rain played in the first and third matches of the T20 series. The first match was abandoned without being able to bowl a single ball and the third match ended in a draw.
Suryakumar Yadav’s century in the second match clinched the series for India. India won the three-match series 1-0.
The current situation makes it clear that the situation in the ODI series is not going to be different. New Zealand now have the upper hand after winning the first match of the series.
New Zealand lead 1-0 after the second ODI was rained out and the match abandoned. The Kiwis don’t even need to win the third match to clinch the series. New Zealand can win the ODI series if the third match is rained out.
India’s tour of New Zealand consists of six matches including three T20Is and three ODIs. But after five of these matches, three matches were rained out. Only one T20 and one ODI has been played completely so far.
With the second match also abandoned due to rain, discussions are also active on social media. Social media is asking whether the series is being conducted by finding the rainy place itself.
Now the trolls are calling the rain as Sanju Samson’s tears. Such trolls are also discussed by pointing out that they don’t get a chance even when they perform well.
India – New Zealand abandoned the second ODI after several overs were shortened. During the fifth over of the match, the match was suspended due to rain. Hours later, the rain cleared and the match resumed.
After the rain, the match was shortened to 29 overs and the match was abandoned when rain came again in the 13th over and the game had to be stopped for a long time.
Handshakes all around after the second ODI is called off due to rain.

If the rain plays like it did in the T20 series, the ODI series may have to be lost before New Zealand.
The last match of the ODI series is on November 30. The Oval is the venue.
