India vs New Zealand prediction

India answered a lot of questions earlier in the week with a strong performance with the bat in particular, accumulating 238 runs in an eventual 48-run win. They boast an incredible amount of power down the order which allows them to keep hitting even when losing wickets, which helped parachute them to such a high total batting first.

New Zealand aren’t miles away from India and their batters aren’t to be underestimated. But India can utilise plenty of different bowling options to help neutralise the tourists and focus is strong among the home team. Back India to this time not let their series lead slip as we saw in the ODIs.
