India vs New Zealand 3rd ODIPitch Report:

Holkar Stadium traditionally offers a batting-friendly surface, but there is some uncertainty following the second ODI in Rajkot, where the pitch played slower and assisted spinners. The Indore surface is likely to favour batters if it follows its usual pattern, but slow, low-bounce conditions could bring spinners into the game.

The short boundaries at the venue and expected dew in the evening could make bowling difficult. Teams winning the toss are likely to bowl first to avoid batting under challenging conditions later in the match. A first-innings score of 340-350 could be crucial for setting a defendable total.
