NZ vs AUS Dream11 Prediction, Best Dream11 Playing XI, Today Match 2nd T20I, New Zealand vs Australia T20I series 2025

Dream11 fantasy XI tips and guide for 2nd T20I of New Zealand vs Australia T20I series 2025 between NZ vs AUS to be played in Mount Maunganui.

New Zealand didn’t have an answer to Australia‘s onslaught while defending the target in first of the three-match T20I series. Australia didn’t let the Black Caps settle down with the ball and kept attacking and ended up with a 1-0 lead in the ongoing series.

Mitchell Marsh led from the front and will be eyeing a series win on Friday. These two teams will be up against each other in second game of the series, which will be played at the same venue, Bay Oval, Mount Maunganui on Friday, 3rd October.

Australia are expected to put on yet another T20 batting master class. New Zealand certainly need some plans against this strong batting lineup to restrict them.

NZ vs AUS: Pitch Report

The overcast conditions will help the fast bowlers initially with swing and seam movement. The batting conditions are expected to get better with time. Batters can use the bounce to good effect, and shorter square boundaries make the job for bowlers more difficult. Hence, it will be better to bowl first in these conditions.
