Overview
- New Zealand sealed a 3-0 ODI sweep with a two-wicket win in Wellington, driven by a late unbeaten stand from Blair Tickner and Zakary Foulkes.
- England's top four managed just 84 runs across the three ODIs, the lowest combined tally by a top order in any men's ODI series of at least three matches.
- Head coach Brendon McCullum said the batting failures were specific to one-day cricket and did not expect any carryover into the Ashes.
- England have named a 16-player, pace-led Ashes group that includes the returning Jofra Archer, who completed his full bowling allotment in the final two ODIs.
- Australia captain Pat Cummins will miss at least the first Test, which begins on November 21 at Optus Stadium in Perth.
