NZ VS AUS Dream11 Team Prediction – Who Will Win?
With the prediction of rain during the scheduled time, the toss will have a major role in this game. Generally, teams prefer to bat first, but if the conditions will be overcast, will both captains stick with that? However, the bowling conditions in the first innings will be brilliant, and there will be good help for the seamers.
But if we have to pick one team from these, Australia will be our pick. It is because they have a settled batting unit with players doing well in the recent past. Then, they have experience in their bowling lineup, while New Zealand might lack in these departments.
