ENG vs NZ 1st ODI Dream 11 Prediction: England vs New Zealand Predicted Playing 11 and Fantasy Tips
England and New Zealand face off in an intense 1st ODI ahead of the 2023 World Cup. Ben Stokes returns from retirement, Harry Brook joins England, while Tom Latham leads the Kiwis. Excitement abounds.
The cricketing world is abuzz with anticipation as England and New Zealand gear up for the 1st ODI of their 4-match series, set to commence at 5:00 PM IST. The preceding four-match series between these two cricketing giants ended in a thrilling 2-2 draw, setting the stage for an even more intense battle this time around. The stakes are high, with both teams eyeing preparation for the upcoming ICC World Cup 2023 in India.
One of the most significant developments leading up to this clash is the return of England’s star all-rounder, Ben Stokes, who has come out of retirement to bolster his team’s chances. Stokes, known for his match-winning abilities, adds considerable depth to the English squad.
In a surprising move, Harry Brook, who wasn’t initially included in England’s provisional squad for the World Cup 2023, has been drafted into the team as a batting reserve. His inclusion reflects England’s commitment to strengthening their batting lineup for the World Cup.
New Zealand, on the other hand, is hopeful of the return of their captain, Kane Williamson, for the World Cup 2023, but they will have to manage without him in this series against England. Tom Latham will lead the Kiwi side, a role he has embraced since September 2022.
Notably, Trent Boult will make his much-anticipated return to the New Zealand side for the first time since September 2022, adding a significant dimension to their bowling attack.
