IND vs NZ 2nd ODI Match Prediction & Betting Tips
After a very entertaining opening game of the series which India won by 12 runs over New Zealand in Hyderabad, the two teams make the journey to Raipur for Saturday’s day-night ODI. India posted 349-8 in the first game but New Zealand gave the chase a real good go. They were still in the game at the start of the 50th over before being dismissed for 337. Read on as we preview this game. This ODI gets underway at 13:30 local time.
India rotated some of their players in the opening game but were still able to win a tough encounter. We expect them to play even better in this match and struggle to see how they will lose this match.
New Zealand showed fantastic fighting spirit to take the game to the final over after finding themselves 131-6 in the 29th over. The Black Caps never give up but it will be very hard for them to win this game.

NZ Team News
With no new injuries in the squad, and the conditions at this ground not expected to be hugely different to what we saw in Hyderabad, we predict that New Zealand will be unchanged. The Black Caps will be looking for more runs from their top six after numbers seven and eight top scored in the first match.
NZ Key Players
- Finn Allen - The opener has not quite managed to establish himself at this level but his seven fours and one six in the last game will go a long way to making him feel at home in ODIs.
- Michael Bracewell - The all-rounder continued his excellent international form in the first ODI. He went wicketless but top scored for New Zealand with 140 runs from 78 balls.
- Lockie Ferguson - Although he didn’t bowl any wides or no-balls, Ferguson conceded 77 runs in Hyderabad with Shubman Gill getting him to the boundary on many occasions. His pace will be a factor in this match.

After winning the final two ODIs in Pakistan, New Zealand’s winning run was halted with the defeat on Wednesday.
