India's all-rounder, Washington Sundar, has been sidelined from the ongoing ODI series against New Zealand following a rib injury sustained in the opening match held in Vadodara.

Despite bowling five overs for 27 runs and initially departing mid-innings due to discomfort, Sundar returned to bat at number eight, contributing to India's four-wicket victory.

This injury sees Sundar joining teammates Rishabh Pant, who is out with a side strain, and Tilak Varma, who is unavailable for the T20I series due to post-surgical recovery from a groin injury.
