Sony Sports Network has rolled out its promo for the upcoming ODI series between India and New Zealand. 

It features New Zealand captain Mitchell Santner talking about how India have the stars through the likes of Shubman Gill, KL Rahul, Jasprit Bumrah, and the much-acclaimed RoKo (Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli). He states that New Zealand has a plan to stop them and promises viewers that the team will stop team India. Former Indian cricketer Ajinkya Rahane responds to that by stating team India and RoKo's plan is to destroy. 

What we think about it: The film continues to build the hype for the ongoing bilateral series between the two countries by showing the New Zealand team more aggressive than ever. We can't help but ignore the several 'RoKo' references in the film too, emphasising on the fact that the two will be playing the five-match ODI series. 

The ODI series kicks off on 4 November. Team India currently leads the five-match T20 series by three games to nil.
