NZ vs IND Dream 11 Prediction: The opening T20I encounter between hosts New Zealand and India is scheduled to be contested at the Sky Stadium in Wellington on 18 November, 2022 (Friday). Even after having conceded a pretty convincing defeat in the semi-final at the hands of Pakistan, New Zealand are always considered one side who punch above their weights and are a tough team to beat in their home conditions. On the other hand, India have managed to win both of their last two bilateral T20I series against the Kiwi team.

The conditions at the Sky Stadium will be favourable for the batsmen to a great extent. There will be some help for the pace bowlers and batsmen as well due to the bounce available on the track. Thus, the captain winning the toss should choose to bowl first and picking a mixed combination of batters, all-rounders and bowlers will be a good decision for this game.

For New Zealand, Devon Conway has performed extremely well across the three formats of the game in the last couple of years. Conway has smacked a total of 1086 T20I runs from just 33 matches at a strike-rate of more than 131.
New Zealand’s middle-order batsman Glenn Phillips has done impressively well in the shorter format of the game. Phillips has notched up close to 1300 runs from as many as 54 T20I games at a brilliant strike-rate of nearly 150.
1. Ishan Kishan 2. Shubman Gill 3. Shreyas Iyer 4. Suryakumar Yadav 5. Rishabh Pant (wk) 6. Hardik Pandya 7. Deepak Hooda 8. Harshal Patel 9. Bhuvneshwar Kumar 10. Arshdeep Singh 11. Yuzvendra Chahal
Suryakumar Yadav has definitely the most dynamic player for India in the T20I format of the game in the ongoing calendar year. Suryakumar Yadav scored three brilliant fifties in the recently concluded ICC T20 World Cup 2022.
Indian captain Hardik Pandya has contributed immensely well both in the batting as well as bowling departments since returning from injury. Pandya has smacked more than 1100 runs with a strike-rate of close to 150 and also picked up a total of 62 wickets in T20I cricket.
According to the New Zealand vs India today match prediction, India are the favourites to win this match.
