New Zealand scored 300/8, with Mitchell's 84, as India need 301 to win.

Daryl Mitchell scored 84 off 71 balls to help New Zealand post 300 for 8 in the first ODI against India at Vadodara, where openers Devon Conway and Henry Nicholls laid a strong foundation with a 100-run partnership. Despite middle-order setbacks and pressure from Indian bowlers, Mitchell’s composed innings stabilized the innings, aided by a late surge. India now face a 301-run target to win the match.
