Win Prediction
New Zealand is coming with a no-result match against Afghanistan. New Zealand started their campaign in good rhythm by beating one of the contenders for the title of the ICC T20 World Cup 2022 team Australia in their first encounter. It has also boosted the confidence of the team after getting a victory against the biggest rival.
On the other hand team, Sri Lanka is coming with a loss against team Australia in their last encounter. Sri Lanka is looking a weak team in front of New Zealand in the current scenario. New Zealand is the favorite to win this match.
The New Zealand team is in a good rhythm at the moment. Their top order and especially both the openers are batting brilliantly. However, there is a world-class batsman like Kane Williamson in the middle order.
on the other hand, talking about bowling, the Kiwi team is strong on this front. Apart from Tim Southee and Trent Boult, there is left-arm spinner Mitchell Santner. We have seen his brilliance against Australia.
