India vs New Zealand Preview
- In the last four ODI innings, India has scored 349 or more.
- India has won six straight games, including a recent 3-0 series victory over Sri Lanka.
- Recently, New Zealand defeated Pakistan 2-1 in an ODI series.
The two teams will go to Raipur for Saturday’s day-night ODI following a very exciting series opener in Hyderabad, in which India defeated New Zealand by a score of 12 runs. India scored 349 points in the opening game as New Zealand made a valiant effort to catch up. Prior to being dismissed for 337 at the start of the 50th over, they were still in the game. The first pitch of this ODI is at 13:30 local time.
India won a challenging match despite rotating several of its players in the first game. We anticipate them to perform even better in this game and find it difficult to imagine how they may lose.
After being down 131-6 in the 29th over, New Zealand showed incredible grit to force the game into the final over. Although the Black Caps never give up, they will have a very difficult time winning this match.
India vs New Zealand Weather Report, Toss Prediction And Pitch Report
We anticipate a beautiful, sunny day with no rain for this game.
No target is secure in these conditions with dew forecast in the second innings, therefore both skippers may decide to chase in this game with the series on the line.
We anticipate some early-game bowler swing and seam movement in Raipur. If they are prepared, batters could enjoy batting here.
