NZ vs IND Dream11 Prediction: Indian cricket team had contrasting results in the games played on this tour, with a 5-0 win in the T20Is, followed by a clean sweep defeat in the 3-match ODIs. Led by Virat Kohli, the Indian contingent would now be looking to grab hold of a win in New Zealand, considering they possess a competent unit in the batting and bowling department. Meanwhile, the Kiwis would go as the favorites for the 2-match Tests, taking in account that they will be competing in the home conditions, and lost a Test series at home against India way back in 2008-09. The quartet of Ross Taylor, Kane Williamson, Trent Boult, and Tim Southee would play crucial roles for their side in the much-coveted encounters.

NZ vs IND Best Players

New Zealand

Ross Taylor has been in a red-hot form in the ongoing series and will look to extend his performances in the red-ball games as well. He would be competing in his 100th Test and will become the sole cricketer to achieve the feat of playing a hundred matches in ODIs, T20Is and Tests. In 99 Tests played so far, Taylor has amassed 7174 runs at an average of 46.28 and has smashed 19 centuries and 33 half-centuries in the process, making him a certain pick in NZ vs IND Dream11 unit.

Trent Boult is another top prospect from the Kiwi tent who could be backed to come up with stellar numbers at Wellington. In 7 Tests against India, the left-arm pacer has scalped 25 wickets at an average of 34.00, and in overall, holds 256 wickets in 65 matches. The swing specialist would look to tear through the Indian lineup by capitalizing early on in the contest and can be backed to come up with impressive numbers by the end of the first Test.

India

Virat Kohli’s inclusion becomes a no brainer considering he is the best pick the tourists have to offer in the 2-match Test series. The Indian skipper has enjoyed playing versus the Kiwis in the longer format as is visible from his statistics in the Tests. In 7 matches against New Zealand, Kohli has aggregated 735 runs while averaging 66.82, including 3 centuries and as many half-centuries. His performance would hold the key for India if they are vying to get a 1-0 lead in the 2-match Tests.

Ajinkya Rahane has been the go-to man for India when it comes to performing under crunch moments in overseas Tests. Against New Zealand, the Mumbaikar averages 63.63 in 5 Tests and has amassed 509 runs including 2 centuries and a half-century. Rahane was in a good nick during India’s tour of Windies held last year wherein he rendered match-winning exhibitions and would be backed to deliver a stupendous show in New Zealand.
