NZ-XI vs IN-A Dream11 Prediction : New Zealand XI Vs India A Best Dream 11 Team for 2nd Practice Match

NZ-XI vs IN-A Dream11 Team Probable Playing 11, Toss, Pitch And Match Report: Ruthless India look to wrap up the practice matches with another clinical performance.  

While the difference in quality between this New Zealand  XI and India A side was blatant even before the two sides went at loggerheads in the practice encounters, the way India ended up decimating the Black Caps is bound to have hurt the home side. Trouncing New Zealand XI by 91 runs in the first practice match between the two units, India ended up outshining their competitors in all departments of the game.

Registering a healthy 279 while batting first, India A returned with an even more emphatic bowling effort to dispatch New Zealand off for just 187. It was a calamitous showing for the home side with the unit completely dominated in conditions akin to them, a showing they’ll be looking to work upon come today’s tie.

Elsewhere, the Indian unit who play their final practice match before squaring off against New Zealand A for a T20 and ODI series, will be looking to emulate the same rampant display. This encounter will serve as one final chance for them to familiarise themselves with the conditions at hand before a vastly superior New Zealand A side comes to take them on.

Probable Winner

India decimated New Zealand the last time around and given the way they outplayed their opponents in all the components of the game, we envision the Indians pulling off another win n the day.

Pitch Conditions And Toss

The previous encounter contested over here showed why the side winning the toss typically prefers to bat first on the track. The conditions in the morning period are pinch effect for the bats to crunch the ball to the fence and pile on a stern target for their opposition.

NZ-XI vs IN-A Dream11 Wicket-Keeper

New Zealand’s Dan Cleaver came up with 33 runs for his side the last time around, a knock which saw him see his side escape from an over 100 run defeat. It was a knock which epitomised why he’s held in such high stature in the country, a display ingrained with technique and application to make him our pick here.

His side’s opener, Jack Boyle will be coming in as well from the unit after scoring 42 runs for the unit the last time around. While Bhula outscored him with 50 runs, Boyle’s knock was a more pleasing to the eye one, a display which saw us repose faith in him for the day.

Elsewhere, from India we are moving in with the four bats for the day given the way in which these names walked all over the home side’s bowlers the last time around. We begin with the side’s top scorer on the day, Ruturaj Gaikwad who hit 93 runs for his side, getting in Shubman Gill who came up with 50 runs as the two stitched together an 89 run stand for  the first wicket.

Following that knock was Suryakumar Yadav’s clean hitting brand of cricket, one which saw him rake up a 50 to see him come in as well. Mayank Agarwal might have failed the last time around but he looks good to make a return for the day to see him wrap up our picks from India A.

NZ-XI vs IN-A Dream11 All-Rounders

With 41 runs and the two wickets, Krunal Pandya comes into our side here as we keep peeling off the names from the Indian unit for the contest. Elsewhere, although New Zealand’s captain Daryl Mitchell endured a lopsided showing with both the bat and ball, hs ability to manifest his skill set in both the slots makes him someone who can always come up with a match winning performance.

NZ-XI vs IN-A Dream11 Bowling Order

India’s leading wicket taker the last time around with the 4 wickets, pacer Khaleel Ahmed becomes the first player to find a place in this ambit of our unit. Mohammed Siraj got the two wickets in that encounter to see him being brought in as well while from New Zealand XI we’ll be going in with the singular pick of Zak Gibson who snagged the four wickets.

Captain And Vice-Captain

We are making Yadav our side’s captain while Gaikwad is our vice-captain.
