Australia and New Zealand go head to head in the second ODI in the three game series on Thursday in Cairns. Tuesday’s series opener saw Australia recover from 44-5 to reach their target of 233 with two wickets and five overs remaining. Read on as we preview this day-night ODI. The second game in the series begins at the Cazaly’s Stadium at 14:20 local time.
Australia showed all the fight and grit that is associated with their cricket to recover from their awful start with the bat to get home with 30 balls to spare. They very rarely give opposition chances in successive games.
New Zealand will still be kicking themselves after failing to get over the line in the opening game of the series. There were dropped chances at crucial times and they know they may not get those opportunities again in this ODI.
TV channels: This match will be shown live on Sony Six in India, ESPN in the USA, BT Sport in the UK, Fox Sports in Australia and Spark Sports in New Zealand.
Live Streaming: Fans can stream the match on SonyLiv and FanCode.
Australia won the toss and chose to field first, a decision which looked like a poor one two-thirds of the way through the game. Batting became easier as the match progressed on Tuesday and we predict both skipper to elect to field first in this ODI.
It was a tricky surface for the batters throughout but certainly flattened out a bit as the game progressed. We expect another lively pitch in this second game of the series..
Sunny during the day before clear skies through the evening in Cairns. It will get more humid as the game progresses.

Ashton Agar was left out of the Australia side in favour of Marnus Labuschagne as the home team opted to select an extra batter in the opening game. Although Labuschagne made a seven ball duck, we expect him to be picked again for this ODI.
Australia bounced back from their shock defeat to Zimbabwe with an excellent win over New Zealand. They showed plenty of fight in Tuesday’s game.

There were a couple of surprises in New Zealand’s line up ahead of the opening game of the series with opener Finn Allen left out alongside the experienced Tim Southee. Lockie Ferguson rarely plays two games in three days and we expect Southee to come in for him for this match.
New Zealand have lost two of their last four games in this format. They will recognise that they should have won in the first match of the series.
Martin Guptill, Devon Conway, Kane Williamson (c), Tom Latham (wk), Daryl Mitchell, Michael Bracewell, James Neesham, Mitchell Santner, Matt Henry, Trent Boult, Lockie Ferguson
Tuesday’s win for Australia made it three successive ODI victories for the hosts over New Zealand. The Black Caps have won only two of the last eight clashes between the sides in this format.

After managing to win from 44-5, Australia will be full of confidence and the bookmakers are backing them to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series.

New Zealand showed that they should not be afraid of this Australia side on Tuesday and performed well with both bat and ball. They will need one of their batters to go on and make a big score if they are to win the ODI.
David Warner, Steve Smith and Marnus Labuschagne are our batting picks for Australia. Smith averages 43.39 in this format.
Kane Williamson, Devon Conway and Martin Guptill are our batting tips for New Zealand. Guptill has scored 18 centuries in ODIs.
Our bowling tips are Josh Hazlewood, Mitchell Starc and Adam Zampa for Australia. Starc got the big wicket of Martin Guptill in Tuesday’s game.
Trent Boult, Tim Southee and Matt Henry are our bowling choices for New Zealand. Henry has taken six wickets across his last two ODIs.
The first game of the series was a real rollercoaster ride for all players and supporters and both were kept guessing on who would come out on top until the winning runs were hit. We expect another very close encounter but are backing Australia to again get the win.
