NZ vs WI, 1st ODI, Cricket Tips: New Zealand dominated West Indies in the recently concluded T20I series and recorded a 3-1 series win. They looked in control and were the better team. These sides will now be ready for three ODIs, starting on Sunday. The first ODI will be held at Hagley Oval, starting at 6:30 AM IST.

West Indies have managed to come close in almost every T20I, but it was the same old story, where they failed to hold on to momentum. Hence, that can still haunt them here. Their inability to bat for the full 50 overs will be tested in these tough conditions, while New Zealand will look to carry on their good form.
