Australia will meet New Zealand in the final Test of the 3-matches Test series. Australia are leading by 2-0 in the series.

Australia Preview:

Australia will end their Test summer with the final Test. They are in supreme form with their all-round game in both matches of the series. They have been a destructive side at home as their top-order has been in good form and their bowling trio Cummins, Starc and Lynn are doing very well. In first Test, they won by 296 runs and in the second game, they won by 247 runs. In previous encounter, Smith got his first half-century of this Test summer. Travis Head got century and captain Paine also scored vital 79. Pat Cummins picked 5-wickets haul in first innings and Nathan Lyon bagged 4-wickets in 2^nd innings. Labuschagne and Smith are in good form and Warner’s good run at home continues. Australia are strong favourites in this final Test.

New Zealand Preview:

New Zealand is on the verge of clean sweep. They lost both Tests with big margins and they were completely outplayed by Australia in both departments. Tom Blundell got century in the second innings and this is the only positive from this series so far. Williamson got just 57 runs in 2 Tests including two single digit scores. In-form players like Tom Latham, Henry Nicholls and Watling were average with the bat. New Zealand’s bowling was also not at its best as only Wagner and Southee delivered something good for Kiwis. New Zealand’s moral is down but if their top-order works, they can surprise Australia in Sydney. Williamson is dobutful for the Test as Phillips can replace him.

AUS vs NZ Dream11 Best Players

Australia

Marcus Labuschagne

Labuschagne is having a tremendous form after Ashes. He was the leading run-getter for Australia in Tests in 2019. In first Test, he scored a magnificent hundred and also got half-century in the 2^nd Test. He might be a good pick as captain and vice-captain.

Steve Smith

The excellent Test player Smith got his first 50 plus score of Australian Test summer. Smith was the 2^nd highest run-getter for Australia in 2019. Smith is the powerhouse of talent and he will be the best pick for captain in Dream11. Smith’s numbers are incredible in New Year test. In last match at Sydney, he scored hundred against England in 2017.

New Zealand

Ross Taylor

Ross Taylor scored 80 in the first Test and he is the only player after Blundell who showed some good fight against Australian attack. Taylor has been excellent with the bat in last 2 years and on a batting track, Taylor will be a vital player for New Zealand.

Neil Wagner

Wagner is known for his wicket-taking spells and he has been excellent with the new ball. He has picked 14 wickets so far in the series including two 4-wickets hauls. Wagner can produce wickets on this track and will be the best pick in Fantasy.
