New Zealand are experiencing significant challenges regarding player injuries ahead of the third ODI against India. Lockie Ferguson is ruled out of the final two ODIs due to a calf injury he sustained previously. Blair Tickner is also unable to play immediately and must follow a stand-down protocol after being hit while batting. Kristian Clarke has been included in the squad to provide additional fast bowling options.
