NZ vs NAM Dream11 Team Prediction: Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing XI & Injury Updates For ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Match – 5th November, 2021

NZ vs NAM: The Kiwis will go head-to-head against Namibia for their upcoming Super 12 encounter of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup.

New Zealand are walking into this encounter with a win over Scotland in their previous game. Being asked to bat first, the Kiwis put on a stellar show with the bat and thanks to Martin Guptill’s 56-ball 93, New Zealand put up a target of 173. While defending, Trent Boult’s 2/29 & Ish Sodhi’s 2/42 overshadowed Michael Leask’s 20-ball 42* to help the Kiwis win by 16 runs.

Meanwhile, Namibia are walking into this match with a disappointing loss against Pakistan. Being asked to bowl first didn’t help Namibia one bit as Mohammad Rizwan’s unbeaten 79 and Babar Azam’s 70 helped Pakistan post a enormous target of 190. While chasing, David Wiese’s unbeaten 43 and Craig William’s 40 lifted the spirits of Namibia, but they ended up on the losing side by 45 runs.

In the upcoming encounter, New Zealand are most likely to get an easy win with the kind of team they possess.

Weather Report

The afternoon heat will help humidity play its role throughout the game. The temperatures will marginally decrease from 32 to 31 degrees as the match progresses. There are no signs of precipitation whatsoever.
