ICC T20 World Cup 2024: 5 New Zealand players you must have in your Dream11 team
New Zealand will begin their ICC T20 World Cup 2024 campaign on June 7 against Afghanistan in Guyana.
New Zealand are yet to win a major ICC white-ball tournament, despite qualifying for a number of knockout stages. They made it to the semi-finals of ICC T20 World Cup in 2007, 2016, and 2022 and were runners-up in the 2021 edition in the UAE. The Black Caps will be hoping to turn things around in the upcoming ICC T20 World Cup 2024 in June. They are placed in Group C and will enter the tournament under the captaincy of Kane Williamson.
The team has a mix of experienced and young talents, and their fans will be hoping that they can do well. There are some exciting names in the squad, and New Zealand will face Afghanistan in their opening match on June 7. Here we will talk about five Kiwi players whom you must pick while making the Dream11 team on fantasy platforms for the ICC T20 World Cup 2024.
Here are the five New Zealand stars you must have in your Dream11 teams during ICC T20 World Cup 2024:
5. Kane Williamson
Without a doubt, Kane Williamson is one of the best all-format cricketers in the modern era. His numbers across formats are superb, and he is a consistent batter in the shortest format as well. Williamson is the backbone of the Kiwi batting order, and as a captain, he has always done well. So you can pick him for your Dream11 team because his experience will be valuable on the slow pitches in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024.
4. Finn Allen
Finn Allen has already smashed two centuries in his short T20I career. He is one of their destructive batters who likes to take on the bowling in the powerplay. Finn is known for taking more risks, which pays off sometimes, and he can outscore any batter. That is why you will find him on most of the Dream11 teams. You can also have him because, as an opener, he is expected to make more deliveries.
3. Rachin Ravindra
Rachin Ravindra should be one Kiwi player you should pick on fantasy cricket platforms during the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. He is a brilliant batter on slow pitches and scores runs at a good rate. Adding to that, his spin bowling will be very effective in the USA or West Indies, and he is also a good fielder. He is one of those Kiwi players who can contribute well in all three departments of the game.
2. Devon Conway
Devon Conway is expected to be back for New Zealand’s first game on June 7. He has almost recovered from his thumb injury and is ready to go. He is probably the best all-format Kiwi batter at the moment, and his numbers speak a lot about it. The southpaw is a run-machine at the top, and his technique is perfectly suited for the slow pitches in the coming ICC T20 World Cup 2024. Furthermore, he is the first-choice keeper, and you will find him collecting points with the gloves as well.
1. Glenn Phillips
Glenn Phillips was unfortunate that he didn’t get a game in the recently concluded Indian Premier League 2024, but he is one of those rare cricketers who can do everything when needed. He started as a keeper and turned into a solid middle-order batter who also finishes the game, bowls off-spin, takes wickets, and takes some incredible catches. You name it; he will do it on the field. So he is a perfect player to choose as a vice-captain or captain for your Dream11 team in New Zealand games for the ICC T20 World Cup 2024.
