Welcome to NZ vs AUS Dream11 Prediction for Today’s Match Fantasy Cricket Tips.
New Zealand (NZ) will take on Australia (AUS) in the 1st Test match of the Australia Tour of New Zealand at Basin Reserve, Wellington, New Zealand On Thursday.
New Zealand enters this Test match with confidence, having recently defeated South Africa in their last two Test matches. However, they faced a setback in the T20I series against Australia, losing 3-0, so they will be eager to return to red-ball cricket.
Meanwhile, Australia boasts an impressive Test record globally, including against New Zealand. However, they suffered a loss against the West Indies by 8 runs in their last Test match at the Gabba, which may have dampened their spirits slightly.
