NZ vs SA Dream11 Team Prediction Cricket World Cup 2023

NZ vs SA Match Preview

Both teams are well placed in terms of semifinal qualification. New Zealand have been very good in the World Cup, however, they have suffered close defeats in their previous two games. The team cannot afford to drop another match as the defeat will get their campaign in trouble. New Zealand almost chased 389 against Australia in last game so they have confidence and momentum on their side.

Meanwhile, South Africa have been ruthless, however, they have at times choked under pressure. They lost one match to Netherlands and almost lost to Pakistan in last game from a position of strength. South Africa need to ensure the team does not panic in pressure situations else their dream of winning a World Cup will stay a distant dream.

Let’s take a look at the dream11 team prediction for this match.
