IND vs NZ Dream11 Prediction: Both teams come into this game knowing they haven’t been good enough. However, those early losses will also have provided valuable lessons and they still have their qualification chances on their own hands. India and New Zealand come face to face once again and this match is very crucial in the context of this Group with Pakistan most likely to finish at the top of the group. India has never beaten New Zealand in a World T20 match so far but records are meant to be broken and Indians will hope they can deliver in this crunch game. On the other hand, New Zealand has their own problems with the injury of Ferguson who has been ruled out but they still have the quality in the squad to make this a good game.

Pitch Report

The track here is good for batting but seamers can get some early movement and there are chances of dew later in the match. Win the toss and chase have been the trend of matches here so far with chasing teams winning 6 out of 6 matches played here and it will be no different this time around and both captains would love to chase.
