NZ vs AUS Dream11 New Zealand vs Australia 4th T20I 5 March

NZ vs AUS Dream11: Desperate times calls for desperate measures and this was something Australia displayed in the 3rd T20I as they kept the series alive with a comprehensive win in the last game by 64 runs. The two teams will remain in Wellington for the fourth T20I all set to be played on Friday.

Talking about the last game, the match was divided into two halves. The first half saw the return in form of the Glenn Maxwell and skipper Aaron Finch who decimated the New Zealand bowling with relative ease. The second half belonged to the man of the match Ashton Agar who scalped 6 Blackcaps wickets for 30 runs. His stupendous performance deprived New Zealand of a win and Australia still remains alive in the series. With the hosts’ striking form at the right moment, the series is wide open now.

NZ vs AUS Fantasy Cricket Tips, Captain & Differential Pick

Captain picks

Kane Williamson: The Blackcaps skipper didn’t get going in the last encounter but is a class batsman. He has got two fifty-plus scores from his last 6 T20I appearances and looks good enough to play yet another crucial knock.

Martin Guptill: After two back-to-back brilliant knocks, it seems like the swashbuckling opener has got his mojo back. He has scored over 130 runs in his last two innings and looking decent for some more.

Glenn Maxwell: He has normally been a one-match wonder throughout his career and getting 70 off 31 deliveries in the last game seems to be the innings he wanted to get going. With his handy offies, he could be a good bet here.

Differential picks

Tim Southee: The right-arm speedster has done decently well in the series. He has been economical and has managed to scalp wickets at crucial junctures. He has scalped 13 wickets at an economy of 8.12 in the last 7 T20Is.

Josh Phillipe: Match after match, Josh Phillipe has got starts he has scored 43 and 45 in the last two games and looking good enough for a big knock. He could be a vital pick in GL teams.

Mitchell Santner: The all-rounder has scalped 10 wickets at this venue in T20Is at an average of 12.60 and a fabulous economy of 6. He just loves bowling on this ground.
