NZ vs AUS Final T20I Dream11 Team Prediction: Preview

Welcome to our Preview for NZ vs AUS Final T20I. The match will be played at the Eden Park, Auckland and This is our Dream11 probable playing XI for Australia vs New Zealand Final T20I.

This match will be played at the same ground where AUS and NZ played their last match and runs flooded. The match saw a historic world-record chase of 244 runs and bowlers had nowhere to hide. Flat track and small ground aided clean hitting and a run-party were enjoyed by the batsmen.

Same will be the scene for this match. Warner has already indicated that they will have to find innovative ways to tackle this problem and stem the run flow. Australia has won their last 5 T20I matches and is in contention to be number 1 in T20Is after dismal performances earlier.

New Zealand narrowly qualified for the final after they suffered a loss against England in the last match. Their opening combo of Guptill-Munro is currently the best in the world but other batsmen are lagging them by quite a distance. They will have to pick up their bowling as well which has taken a stick in last two matches.

Team News:

Australia:
Australia is yet to confirm their final XI as they are pondering over choosing Zampa for this match. Although the pitch might suit spinners, playing a leg-spinner on this short ground may prove disastrous.

New Zealand:
NZ likely to persist with the same team.

Dream11 Team prediction:

Dream11 team for NZ vs AUS Final T20I

Suggestions:

  • Both Seifert and Carey bat in the lower middle order but Seifert will be a better choice as he will be given a preference by NZ to bat at the death.
  • Guptill is in super form at the top and is a sure pick, Lynn can explode any day. Warner-Short will also be important since this will be a run-feast.
  • Maxwell and Munro are obvious picks. Going with 5 BAT and 2 AR will make more sense here.
  • Picking death bowlers will be wise as teams may lose wickets in a flurry in the end overs.
