NZ Playing 11 (likely)

The New Zealand team will be under pressure after losses in the T20 World Cup Final and bilateral T20I series. But few of their players like Kane Williamson and Kyle Jamieson will be fresh after a good rest and can help the team to get an edge in crucial situations. The top order batsman Devon Conway injured himself in the T20 World Cup, and Daryl Mitchell has replaced him in the squad.

Glenn Phillips has been named in the test squad for the first time, and it will be a toss between him and Rachin Ravindra. Henry Nicholls and Tom Blundell, and Will Young. While the regular bowlers like Jamieson, Boult, Southee is expected to play, with Patel as the spin option.
