NZ vs SL Dream11 Team Prediction – Who Will Win?
The challenge will be bigger as both teams will compete in a different format. As seen in the T20Is, Sri Lanka struggled in the first two games, but they had a pretty good show in the final match, which they won. That should have given them some sort of confidence. But scoring consistently in these conditions will be a big task for them. New Zealand will surely be having an edge of home conditions on their side.
As per our analysis and game stats and recent matches and squads of these two teams, there is a high probability that New Zealand might win this match, because they are very strong at home.
Although the winner can be entirely attributed to the ground stats and its records, so as per the ground stats, the chances of the team batting first are high, so the batting-first team will likely win the second T20I of the Sri Lanka tour of New Zealand in 2024. However, with cricket’s unpredictable nature and Sri Lanka having won the third T20I, this match could go either way. So please analyse on your part and then invest.
