The third one-day international between India and New Zealand in Hamilton has been abandoned due to rain, with the tourists retaining their 2-0 lead in the best-of-five-match series.
Tuesday's outcome ended New Zealand's streak of 11 consecutive home ODI series victories since 2019.
Rain also affected the first contest of the series in Auckland which India won by five wickets and the second in Wellington which the visitors won by four runs. Both matches were decided under the Duckworth Lewis system.
Rain delayed the start of the match at Seddon Park by more than two hours, which was initially reduced to a 40-over contest at the toss.
India captain Shubman Gill elected to bowl, but play could not get underway due to a wet outfield and passing showers and the match was eventually called off following multiple ground inspections by the umpires.
Mount Maunganui hosts the last two ODIs on Friday and Sunday.
India won the preceding Twenty20 series 3-2.
