New Zealand vs West Indies Predictions

New Zealand will be confident after back-to-back wins over the West Indies. Both wins ended up as close-runs things, but only thanks to big hitting late in the innings by the lower order. I am backing New Zealand to win because of their greater consistency.

New Zealand’s Tim Robinson (89 runs, ave 29.66) is 3rd in the T20I series runs list.
New Zealand’s Daryl Mitchell has scored 44, 28* & 41 in his last 4 innings.
West Indies’ Alick Athanaze has scored 33, 31 & 21 in his last 3 innings.
West Indies’ Romario Shepherd has scored 34 & 49 in his last 2 innings.

Head-to-Head

New Zealand have won two and lost two of their last five matches against the West Indies, including two in a row before the 4th T20I, which was rained-off.

New Zealand Form

New Zealand took a 2-1 lead in the five-match series when they won the 3rd T20I by nine runs. The 4th T20I was rained off, ensuring they can’t lose the series if the West Indies win the final match.

Devon Conway’s 56 off 34 balls gives me confidence to back him in the final match, as he often follows up one good score with a few good scores. The rest of the top order have also been showing consistency with the bat.

Daryl Mitchell’s powerful hitting has contributed greatly to New Zealand’s ability to test the West Indies’ ability to chase a total. Their bowlers have done well to defend their totals against the West Indies’ powerful late-order hitters, with Jacob Duffy (2/19, 3/36) and Ish Sodhi (3/39, 3/34) starring with the ball.

New Zealand Team News

New Zealand’s confidence will be high after claiming two wins in a row, and their bowlers have dominated the West Indies’ middle order.

West Indies Form

After enjoying a great run of form, West Indies stumbled to two defeats on the bounce as New Zealand took a 2-1 lead in the five-match T20I series.

Alick Athanaze has shown form with the bat at the top of the order, but there has been no other consistency at the top of the order.

Batting at number eight, Romario Shepherd kept his side in the hunt in the 2nd and 3rd T20Is, scoring Romario Shepherd 34 off 16 balls (1 four, 4 sixes) and 49 off 34 (4 fours, 3 sixes). He also picked up a wicket in each of the first three T20Is.

West Indies Team News

There are no injury reports from the West Indies squad. West Indies are in good form and are unlikely to make any changes to their team. West Indies need to improve their batting bowling and are likely to make some changes to their squad.

Verdict

New Zealand v West Indies

I am backing New Zealand to win. I am also backing Tim Robinson to top score for New Zealand.

Alick Athanaze is a good bet to top score for the West Indies.
