SCO vs NZ Dream11 Prediction: New Zealand eye yet another T20 series win – Even without Kane Williamson, and Tom Latham, New Zealand managed to post a huge score of 200 plus against Scotland. Finn Allen yet again showed his explosive batting and won the game singlehandedly. In the bowling, Ish Sodhi and Santner took wickets at regular intervals and enabled Scotland’s collapse. With T2O World set to be played in October, New Zealand have tested the bench strength nicely.
On the other hand, the hosts played the first match without their talismanic skipper Kyle Coetzer. The batting just could not deliver the goods as were bundled for 157. Richie Berrington’s lack of contributions with bat and ball pegged the hosts back. In the second T20I, Scotland would be hoping to perform collectively well with bat and ball in hand.
