New Zealand vs England Predictions


New Zealand put in a fantastic performance against England in the 1st ODI to claim a comprehensive win. England came into this match on the back of scoring 414/5 against South Africa and then bowling them out for 72, so they have huge star quality in their side, so I am backing them to bounce back and level the series.

Head-to-Head


England have won three and lost two of their last five matches against New Zealand, although the Black Caps have won the last two ODIs in a row.

New Zealand Form


New Zealand made it four wins from their last four ODIs when they beat England by four wickets. 

Zakary Foulkes (4/41) and Jacob Duffy (3/55) had England reeling at 56/6 in the 12th over. They staged a mini-recovery thanks to their middle- and lower-order, before being bowled out for 223 off 35.2 overs.

New Zealand found themselves in trouble early on, but recovered to race to a four-wicket win off 36.4 overs. Daryl Mitchell top-scored with 78*, backed-up by Michael Bracewell (51). 

New Zealand Team News


New Zealand are in good form with bat and ball and will be tough to beat. Zakary Foulkes (4/41) played a key role in running through the England top order and bowling them out in the 1st ODI.

England Form


After beating South Africa by 342 runs in the 3rd ODI of their series, England slipped to their third defeat in four ODIs when they lost to New Zealand by four wickets. 

England crashed to 56/6 in the face of brilliant bowling from New Zealand. They recovered through an excellent seventh-wicket partnership but were bowled out for 223 off 35.2 overs. Harry Brook kept their hopes alive with an astonishing innings of 135 off 101 balls, but they could only post a below-average score of 223 as they were dismissed off 35.2 overs.

Brydon Carse (3/45) was superb with the ball as New Zealand slipped to 24/3, but they recovered to race to a four-wicket win off 36.4 overs.

England Team News


England have a top quality batting lineup and they are unlikely to fold two innings in a row like they did in the 1st ODI. Jofra Archer has joined the squad after being unavailable for the 1st ODI, and in his current form he could be the match-winner.

Verdict

I am backing England to win. I am also backing Harry Brook to top score for England.

Daryl Mitchell is a good bet to top score for New Zealand.
