IND vs NZ Dream11 Prediction, Dream11 Playing XI, Today Match 2, India vs New Zealand test series 2024

Dream11 fantasy cricket tips and guide for the 2nd test of the India vs New Zealand test series 2024, to be played between IND vs NZ in Pune.

The first test match between India and New Zealand turned out to be a shocker for the hosts as New Zealand registered their first win in India since 1988. With the win, New Zealand have taken a lead of 1-0 in the three-test series.

New Zealand will now look to register a historic series win in India by beating them in the second game, which is scheduled to start on Thursday, October 24, at the MCA Stadium in Pune.

New Zealand will look to carry on the momentum, but one defeat can’t write off India, and they still look the stronger unit on Indian soil, especially with the Pune pitch set to be a spin-friendly one.
