What are the Top Picks, players for Dream11, My11circle and MPL for IND vs NZ, 2nd ODI?
Top Pick – Batter
Virat Kohli who got a huge build-up heading into the series after a stunning performance against Sri Lanka failed to meet the expectations as he was dismissed for just 8 runs in the 1st ODI. We all know he is a world-class batter and a good pick for your fantasy teams.
Top Pick – All-Rounder
Michael Bracewell played beyond his abilities in the 1st ODI and showed India doesn’t take anything for granted till the match is finished. Including 12 fours and 10 sixes, he scored 140 runs from just 78 balls.
Top Pick – Bowler
Mohammed Siraj ensured once again that the Indian side didn’t miss Jasprit Bumrah. On his home ground, he picked up 4 crucial wickets in the 1st ODI at an economy of 4.6.
Top Pick – Wicketkeeper
Tom Latham showed glimpses of scoring big runs in the 1st ODI however as to end his innings for 24 runs. He is a class act and is expected to shine in this match.
X-Factor:
Shubman Gill almost found a place in the Indian World Cup squad. Every stroke he played in his innings of 208 runs in the 1st ODI was so pleasing. He is the future of Indian cricket for sure.
What are the fantasy suggested teams for IND vs NZ, 2nd ODI?
1. Tom Latham, Ishan Kishan, Rohit Sharma (c), Virat Kohli, Devon Conway, Shubman Gill, Michael Bracewell (vc), Mitchell Santner, Kuldeep Yadav, Lockie Ferguson, Mohammed Siraj

Pre-Match Analysis:
In a paisa wasool match it was the Men in Blue who held their nerves in the 1st ODI and emerged victorious by 12 runs to take a 1-0 lead in the series. Shubman Gill showed his pure class that he belongs to this stage with a crisp 208 runs and became the 5th Indian to hit a double century in the ODI format. They somehow survived Michael Bracewell’s top-notch innings who almost took the game away. Mohammad Siraj is gearing up for the World Cup and came up with yet another brilliant spell of bowling by picking 4 wickets. Kuldeep Yadav bowled well in the middle orders. They got the reality check with the ball once again at the death overs which is a worrying sign. Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav need to utilize the opportunity in order to find a regular spot in the eleven.
New Zealand should hold their chin up even though they lost the 1st ODI by a mere margin. The game almost slipped out of their hands when they were reeling at 131 for 6 but then Michael Bracewell and Mitchell Santner bought them back with 162 run-stand for the 7th wicket. The former went on to score 140 runs from just 78 balls. They lacked experience in the bowling department with no Tim Southee in the mix. They need a standing ovation for their performances in the series opener. One of the top 3 batters should play an anchor role if they want to outplay India in the rest of the series.
