New Zealand vs India | Tomorrow Match Prediction | Cricket Match Prediction
Preview :
New Zealand and India will face off each other in the second Test match in Christchurch tomorrow. New Zealand lead 1-0 in two Tests series.
In the first Test in Wellington Test New Zealand bowlers were all over Indian batsmen as they troubled them with their seam and swing and the trend may continue in Christchurch too. Indian batsmen need to be more careful against the moving ball especially in the start of the innings and have to bat with some intent as on such tracks slow batting will not work at all. Captain Kohli, Rahane and Pujara have to step up along with Bumrah and Shami. On the other hand, New Zealand will be aiming to clinch the series with yet another good performance and for that once again their pacers Trent Boult, Tim Southee and returning Neil Wagner will be the keys.
