IND vs NZ Dream11 Prediction | India vs New Zealand Match Preview | Fantasy Team & Team News

India versus New Zealand, the 18th Match of the World Cup, is expected to be a gruelling contest. New Zealand thrashed India in the Warm-up match a couple of weeks ago and India will be looking for vengeance, especially since they have been dominant in the last two matches they’ve played.

Both India and New Zealand are the only 2 teams that are undefeated so far in this tournament. New Zealand is on a three-win streak and the winner of this match will disrupt the other’s streaks. India gave Australia a reality check in the last match, defeating them by 36 runs.

Even though it can be argued that New Zealand has faced mediocre teams of this tournament like Sri Lanka and Afghanistan, their players are performing well individually and are well in sync with each other.

Fantasy Picks from India

Virat Kohli | Hardik Pandya | Jasprit Bumrah | Bhuvneshwar Kumar

• Virat Kohli remains a dominant choice as one of the best batsmen. Scoring 82 off 77 really helped the team reach a total of 352. He didn’t do well in the previous match vs SA but should improve here on out.
• All-rounder Hardik Pandya was the catalyst for India in the last match. He went nuclear with the bat (48 off 27) and while his bowling wasn’t upto par, he maintained a  6.80 economy.
• Jasprit Bumrah has been very consistent in this tournament for India. He bagged 3 wickets at the expense of only 50 runs in the 10 overs he bowled (6.10 economy). He has been India’s top bowler alongside Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who also grabbed 3 wickets in the last match with an even lower economy of 5.00.

Fantasy Picks from New Zealand

Kane Williamson | Trent Boult | Lockie Ferguson

• Kane Williamson is New Zealand’s top batsmen currently. He’s amassed a total of 139 in two innings with an average strike rate of 67.68.
• In the warm-up match versus India, Trent Boult was the X-factor because of his 4 wicket haul. He will definitely be an important resource against India’s top order.
• Lockie Ferguson is another phenomenal bowler. He’s been grabbing wickets left right and centre, totalling 8 wickets in 3 matches. His average economy across all three matches is 3.83 which makes him an ideal choice.
