NZ vs IND Dream11 Match Prediction: With Team India sealing the five-match T20I series in the enthralling super over the encounter at Seddon Park, the Men in Blue will now be looking to make changes in order to give opportunities to those missing out. New Zealand on the other end, will be playing for pride and should be kicking themselves for not being able to get the win in spite of the heroics of their skipper Kane Williamson.
