NZ vs AUS Dream11 Team Prediction Tips for 3rd T20I New Zealand vs Australia 3 March
Published on: Mar 2, 2021 12:25 pm IST|Updated on: Mar 2, 2021 12:24 pm IST
NZ vs AUS Dream11: The second wave of COVID-19 has hit New Zealand, and that is why the next two T20Is will now take place at the Westpac Stadium in Wellington behind closed doors instead of Eden Park, Outer Oval. The host’s Blackcaps are already 2-0 up in the series and a win in the third encounter will seal the series for them.
Talking about the Aussies, a late bloomer from Marcus Stoinis and Daniel Sams couldn’t secure a win for the visitors as they fell just 4 runs short of what would have been a scintillating victory. They need to lift themselves up and need to register a crucial win here to stay alive in the 5-match series.

NZ vs AUS Fantasy Cricket Tips, Captain & Differential Pick
Captain picks
Devon Conway: The eye-pleasing left-hander is capable of playing long innings in T20Is. His recent form has been tremendous as he has scored 5 fifties in his last six innings with three scores of 90+
Matthew Wade: In the two games so far, Wade has looked to dominate the bowlers but couldn’t get going. He is somewhere close to his best and could be a great pick for captain/vice-captain here. In his last 4 T20I innings, he has amassed 174runs with two fifties.
Kane Williamson: The Blackcaps skipper has already scored a fifty in this series and has looked in a good flow. He has got scores of 95, 57*, 1, 12, and 53 from his last 5 innings for Blackcaps.
Differential picks
Marcus Stoinis: After scoring a breezy 78 in the last game, Stoinis would be high on confidence. He has 163 runs to his name from the last 6 T20I innings and could be a crucial aspect in this game too.
Trent Boult: The searing left-arm pacer has looked in a good rhythm so far. He has taken 2 scalps in the two games but has managed 6 wickets from the last 4 encounters against this opposition.
