NZ vs NED pitch report
Fast bowlers, armed with their seamers and swingers, are in for a treat early on in Hyderabad. But, as the game unfolds, don’t be surprised to see the spin wizards weaving their magic. Now, for our batters, the real party starts in the second innings – the expansive outfield is just inviting for those sneaky singles and brisk twos. If Tom Latham wins that toss, he is likely to be sending his team out to the field without a second thought.

NZ vs NED: Prediction
As per Google’s win probability, there is a 92% chance that New Zealand will be victorious in this match. However, the Netherlands did show promise against Pakistan and should not be taken lightly.
As per CricTracker, New Zealand will bowl the Dutch out for 220-230 and score 320-340, depending on who bowls first. In either case, the Kiwis will win, it predicts. Even Khel Now tilts in favour of them. We believe it will be a cautious win for New Zealand, ensuring the way forward.
