NZ vs SL Dream11 Team Prediction – Who Will Win?

Two practice games must have helped the visitors to know about the conditions here. Generally, it is difficult for a subcontinent side to come and perform in New Zealand. Sri Lanka have assembled a good side, but their bowling attack looks spin dominant. However, New Zealand also have inexperienced pace unit, but their bowlers know what line to bowl here.

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 first Test of the Sri Lanka tour of New Zealand in 2024. However, with cricket’s unpredictable nature and Sri Lanka have a number of quality players that can surprise them, this match could go either way. So please analyse on your part and then invest.
