India v New Zealand - 3rd ODI, Indore
New Zealand 337-8 (50 overs): Mitchell 137, Phillips 106; Arshdeep 3-63, Harshit 3-84

New Zealand won by 41 runs
Scorecard
New Zealand clinched their first one-day international series win in India with a 41-run victory in the deciding third match.
Daryl Mitchell's 137 and Glenn Phillips' 106 helped the tourists post 337-8 in Indore, which proved beyond India despite Virat Kohli's 124 - a record-extending 54th ODI century.
Successive deliveries by Zak Foulkes proved key as he claimed the wickets of Harshit Rana, who had reached 52, and Mohammed Siraj for a duck.
Two overs later, Kohli was caught by Mitchell at long-off and the hosts were eventually bowled out for 296 in 46 overs as they fell to a 2-1 series defeat.
New Zealand were put into put and had slipped to 58-3 before the match-changing partnership between Mitchell and Phillips, who added 219 from 188 balls.
Mitchell, who made 84 in the first match of the series and 131 in the second, hit 15 fours and three sixes for a career-high ODI score.
His fourth-wicket partnership with Phillips came to an end when the latter was caught behind off Arshdeep Singh.
Mitchell was removed soon after by Mohammed Siraj, but an unbeaten 28 from captain Michael Bracewell helped the Black Caps pose an imposing 337.
Kohli, who now only plays the 50-over format having retired from Test and T20 international cricket, hit 10 fours and three sixes in his 108-ball knock, but it was not enough.
These teams next meet in a five-match T20 series starting on 21 January, before the T20 World Cup gets under way on 7 February - co-hosted by India and Sri Lanka.
