NZ vs AUS 2nd T20I Dream11: Preview
Despite putting up a mammoth score of 215 in the 1st T20I, hosts New Zealand lost the contest on the last ball of the match. With this arguably being their first major test in limited overs cricket since their semi-final appearance in the 2023 ODI World Cup, the Kiwis will be looking to bounce back in the 2nd T20I.
On the other hand, Australia has had a fantastic limited overs summer down under. After they first defeated Pakistan in a three Test series 3-0, they then smoked the West indies 3-0 and 2-1 in three match ODI and T20I series respectively. Now playing on a foreign yet familiar land, the Aussies have taken a lead in the T20I series against New Zealand.

2nd T20I NZ vs AUS Dream11 Prediction: Who Will Win The Match
After an exciting win in the first match, Australia will look to seasl the series by winning this match. But, we might not see the scoring on the level of the 1st T20I. The drop in pitch of Eden Park will likely restrict the scores to sub-180.
Both sides have a solid pace bowling unit if they are to bowl first, but Australia’s bowling order looks a just a bit better. On the other hand, New Zealand’s batting order have proven themselves to be a little more consistent. That, coupled with them being a good home side who will not likely lose a series in just two matches, NEw Zealand will likely win this match.
NZ vs AUS Dream11 Match Prediction: New Zealand will defeat Australia in the 2nd T20I of the three-match series.
