The five-match ODI series begins in Auckland on November 4.
Ahead of the fourth game of the T20I series, which is to be played in Auckland on October 4, Shubman Gill, KL Rahul and others were seen interacting with the T20 squad players during practice sessions.
India's ODI and Test captain Shubman Gill made headlines during the practice session when he was seen sporting Temple, a state-of-the-art AI fitness tracker created by Deepinder Goyal.
The Temple device, which was previously spotted on badminton player PV Sindhu, is supposed to monitor cerebral blood flow, nervous system responses, and cognitive stress levels under exertion. It is positioned just above the eyes across the forehead. Although there are various fitness tracking gadgets on the market, such as watches, rings, and wristbands, it's unclear how the "Temple" device differs from them.
Gill wore the "Temple" device during his Auckland practice, according to a story in RevSportz. The decision to employ the technology has not yet been made officially by the Indian stalwart.
