It was India's only second ODI series win against New Zealand away from home since 2009. It was a dominant display of cricket by India right from game one.
The Virat Kohli-led side won the first three consecutive games to clinch the series before facing a humbling defeat in the fourth one-dayer.
The visitors then concluded the series on a high note, winning the fifth encounter rather convincingly.
On that note, let’s take a statistical recap of India's 2019 tour of the New Zealand ODI Series.
