Despite the off-field altercation, Arshdeep Singh delivered a significant performance with the ball. He finished with figures of 3 for 63 in his 10 overs, providing crucial breakthroughs by dismissing Henry Nicholls and Glenn Phillips.

However, his efforts were not enough to prevent New Zealand from posting a formidable 328. India ultimately fell short in the chase, losing the match by 41 runs. The defeat resulted in a 2-1 series loss, marking the first time the Black Caps have ever won an ODI series on Indian soil.
