After winning the toss, Rohit Sharma says it looks a good pitch, there is some moisture on it but they want to test themselves. He hopes to put up a good show after a humiliating loss in the last game. Mentions they did not have a lot of time after the first game but they will have to read the conditions better and learn from their mistakes. Further adds that had they got close to 200, the story might just have been different in the last ODI. Reckons the average total here is around 240 but if they bat well, they can get close to 300. Ends by saying that they need to assess the conditions and then take it on from there.

New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson says they were looking to bowl first and make use of the early moisture. Further adds he is not sure if the ball would swing here or no but it generally does at the start. Ends by saying it is difficult to predict what a good score will be so they will try and restrict India to as low a total as possible.
