India vs New Zealand Dream11 prediction

Here are the best fantasy cricket picks for the match from NZ

• Glenn Phillips will have to do the heavy lifting in the middle order for New Zealand. He is their best batsman in the last year and a half by a huge margin

• Mitchell Santner is one of the best left arm spinners in T20I cricket. He can be a reliable option for vice captain in grand leagues.

• Devon Conway is once again the most important batsman for NZ in this format as well. He was seen smashing the ball really well in the final ODI.
