Rohit Sharma will be hoping to leave a forgettable start behind him when India meet New Zealand in the second ODI at Wellington.

The visit to Auckland didn’t go to plan for the Indian opener. His time at the crease was very short, and he was out on the last ball of the first over, having faced six deliveries without getting off the mark.
