T20 World Cup 2021: Match Prediction for the game between India and New Zealand

India and New Zealand will take on each other in the 28th match of the T20 World Cup 2021 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Sunday.

Both of these teams had lost their opening match of the T20I showpiece against Pakistan and they will look to get their maiden win of the marquee event.

We have got Match Prediction on the basis of current form, head-to-head, stats, and players to watch out for in the upcoming match.

Current form for India: L L W W L

India was thrashed by their arch-rivals in the opening game and they will need to bounce back. The Virat Kohli-led team will know what is at stake as the contest is almost like a virtual quarterfinal and they will need to come up with their best. India will look to pull up their socks in both batting as well as bowling as they were not able to tick the right boxes against Pakistan.

Current form for New Zealand: L W L L W

New Zealand could not come up with a good batting performance against Pakistan as they could only manage 134 runs on the board. However, the Kiwis were able to come up with a better bowling show and made it difficult for Pakistan to chase down the target despite getting an under-par score.

Head to Head: Matches: 17, Won by India: 8, Won by New Zealand: 8, A:1.

It is quite an even battle between the two teams in the head-to-head battle.

Players to watch out for – Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, Hardik Pandya, Varun Chakravarthy, and Jasprit Bumrah will hold the key for the Indian team.

Kane Williamson, Martin Guptil, Trent Boult, Tim Southee, Lockie Ferguson, Kyle Jamieson, and Devon Conway will be the crucial players for New Zealand.

Match Prediction: India will start as favorites against New Zealand.
