England vs New Zealand Today Match Prediction Preview:

Welcome to the ENG vs NZ Today Prediction curated by Kheltalk cricket experts. In the 1st T20I, England will be hosting New Zealand at the Riverside Ground in Durham.

Ahead of the 1st T20I, both the sides would be extremely confident as they have a solid team. Jos Buttler and co. would be extremely confident as they are playing at home.

On the other hand, New Zealand too would be confident of outclassing the Three Lions. They are coming on the back of a 2-1 T20I series win against UAE in the slow and sluggish conditions of UAE.

We can expect an absolute crackerjack of a contest in this match as both the sides would be aiming for the top honours in this 4-match T20I series.

The series will be followed by a 4-match ODI series, which will be a good preparation ahead of the ICC ODI World Cup 2023.
