India, New Zealand switch to World Cup prep at bouncy Eden Park

Four days after playing a high-scoring T20I at Eden Park, the two teams are back here for the ODIs, but the conditions could be a lot different

Rohit Sharma’s record at Eden Park in all formats of cricket for India has been explored. The legendary batsman first stepped onto Eden Park in 2009 and has since played three ODIs, three T20Is, and one Test match at the venue.

In ODIs, Rohit has scored 98 runs at an average of 49.00 and a strike rate of 73.68, with his highest score being 43* against New Zealand in 2009. However, he has never managed to score a half-century at Eden Park in this format. His T20I appearances include three matches with 65 runs at a strike rate of 158.53, with his highest score being 50 off 28 balls. His only Test appearance resulted in 72 runs against New Zealand in 2014, his highest score at Eden Park in any format.
