NZ vs ENG 2nd Test Match Prediction: After a year, New Zealand will welcome England for a test match tour. The second match will be played at Basin Reserve, Wellington. It will start on December 6 at 3:30 AM IST.
Team Preview of NZ vs ENG 2nd Test Match Prediction 2024
England dominated the first test match, winning by eight wickets. Brydon Carse took 10 wickets, and Harry Brook scored 171 runs to keep his amazing test form going. New Zealand failed to fight as most of their batter did not cross the 20+ runs mark, and the ones who scored 40+ failed to convert it into big innings.
Kane Williamson had a great comeback match, and he was the only New Zealand player who looked confident, scoring 154 runs. Daryl Mitchell was also one of the batters who scored some runs for the New Zealand side, but others need to find ways to deal with the England bowling lineup.
The one major concern in the last test match from the New Zealand side was the dropping of catches, which cost them a match for sure. They dropped a total of eight catches in the first innings of the first test match, five of which were by Harry Brook, who later scored 171 runs in that innings.
It is very surprising to see a team like New Zealand, who have been one of the top fielding sides, drop this many catches is a concern because it cost them matches. Tom Latham needs to make hard decisions over some players like Tom Blundell, who averaged 15.88 in the last 10 matches, and even Devon Conway, who averaged 23.43 this year, which clearly shows why the batting unit is struggling.
