India were 256 for 7 in 46 overs against New Zeland in the first one-day international cricket match in Guwahati, when reports last came in. Earlier New Zealand won the toss and elected to field. India has a chance to regain the second position in the ICC ODI Championship table. Currently Sri Lanka is in the second spot with 118 points one ahead of India but a win in the series by any margin against New Zealand will see India upstage the islanders. A 5-0 win for India will put it on 121 ratings points seven behind Australia who currently top the table. And even if Sri Lanka register a 5-0 win over West Indies in their upcoming ODI series, they will have to sit out in the third position. But if India lose the series 0-5 to New Zealand it will see them drop to the fifth spot. However, a 2-3 series defeat will see India drop down fourth on 114 points while New Zealand will rise to the sixth position on 101 points.
