Summary New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson has made three changes to the starting line-up.
NEW DELHI (AFP) - India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni won the toss and elected to bowl in the second one-day international against New Zealand in New Delhi on Thursday.
The hosts, who whitewashed New Zealand 3-0 in the Test series, remain unchanged from their thumping win in Dharamsala on Sunday, the first of the five-match ODI series.
"A very dangerous side, (it’s) important to respect the opposition and start from scratch," Dhoni said, warning against complacency after India’s recent wins.
New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson has made three changes to the starting line-up in his bid to turn around his team’s fortunes.
Pace spearhead Trent Boult, fast bowler Matt Henry and batsman Anton Devcich have been included in the team, while Doug Bracewell, James Neesham and Ish Sodhi miss out.
