New Zealand are favorites to win
The second of three ODIs between West Indies and New Zealand takes place at the Kensington Oval, Bridgetown on Friday afternoon in Barbados. West Indies won the opening game of the series by five wickets on Wednesday, chasing down their target of 191 with 11 overs remaining. Read on as we preview this day-night ODI. The match gets underway at 14:00.
Form and momentum can turn very quickly in cricket and West Indies have suddenly registered two victories in a row against New Zealand. They will need to be at their best again in this game if they are to make it three on the bounce.
New Zealand were not poor in Wednesday’s game but failed to take advantage of many good opportunities in the match. They are very experienced and we expect them to respond with a stronger performance in this fixture.
TV channels: This match will be shown live on BT Sport, ESPN Caribbean and Sky Sport NZ
Live Streaming: Fans can stream the match via the FanCode App.
West Indies won the toss and chose to field first in the opening ODI. Over the last 30 months and over six games, only one team has won an ODI at this venue when batting first. We predict both teams will want to bowl first.
Bowlers had the upper-hand in the first game of the series with only one player hitting a half-century. We expect the spinners to have the most joy on this pitch in this game.
The temperature will alter between 29 and 28 degrees during this match. There may be a quick rain shower early on in the game but overall there will be few interruptions.

In the opening game of the series, the home side gave ODI debuts to 22 year old off-spinner Kevin Sinclair and 30 year old leg-spinner Yannic Cariah. Jason Holder and Alzarri Joseph were the only pace bowlers in the side but neither will require a rest after Wednesday’s win.
West Indies ended their miserable run of defeats with the win on Wednesday. It was their first ODI victory since beating Netherlands in June.
Shai Hope (wk), Kyle Mayers, Shamarh Brooks, Keacy Carty, Nicholas Pooran (c), Jermaine Blackwood, Jason Holder, Yannic Cariah, Alzarri Joseph, Akeal Hosein, Kevin Sinclair
We expect to see Lockie Ferguson rested for this game. He was expensive with the ball on Wednesday and is regularly left out of back to back matches to protect his fitness ahead of the T20 World Cup. We anticipate that spinner Ish Sodhi will come into the team to replace Ferguson.
Every winning run must come to an end at some point and after 10 successive ODI wins, New Zealand must now try and get back to winning ways in this match.
Martin Guptill, Finn Allen, Devon Conway (wk), Kane Williamson (c), Tom Latham, Daryl Mitchell, Michael Bracewell, Mitchell Santner, Tim Southee, Ish Sodhi, Trent Boult
The result on Wednesday not only went against the formbook of each side but also against the recent results in ODIs between them. West Indies now have a three match lead in the overall head to head.

West Indies played the better cricket and were well deserved winners on Wednesday but the bookmakers are backing New Zealand to win the second ODI.

It will not take a huge switch in performance level with the bat for New Zealand to make a much bigger total in this game. If they do, we could well have a very exciting contest in this fixture.
We are backing Shai Hope, Nicholas Pooran and Shamarh Brooks with the bat for West Indies. Pooran has a top score of 118 in this format.
Kane Williamson, Martin Guptill and Devon Conway are our batting recommendations for New Zealand. Guptill has a top score of 237 not out in ODIs.

Trent Boult, Tim Southee and Ish Sodhi are our bowling tips for New Zealand. Boult dismissed Kyle Mayers and Shamarh Brooks to finish with figures of 2-49 on Wednesday.
Although ODIs are a far longer format than IT20s, it can still take just one performance to win a game. Shamrah Brooks produced that in the first game of the series and it will be interesting to see who delivers on Friday. Overall we are predicting a win for New Zealand
