NZ vs WI Dream11 Team - 1st Test 2020 | 3-7 Dec

We recently finished off the T20I series in New Zealand where the hosts ended up winning 2-0, ending victorious in the first couple of games and then the third being washed out due to rain. We now swiftly move on the longest format of the game and here, we have West Indies looking to compete in a format where they haven’t been the best in recent years or even the past couple of decades.

The 1st test will be played at Seddon Park between 3-7 December and the hosts haven’t lost a Test match here since 2012. On the other hand, Windies has a poor record at this ground, losing all of their 3 Tests played here over the years, so they’ll certainly be looking at improving their record here.

Numbers

Last 5 games head to head, New Zealand leads 4-1.
New Zealand – haven’t lost any of their last 7 Tests here.
Ross Taylor – 1,066 runs in 12 previous Tests here.
Tim Southee – 46 wickets in only 9 Tests at this ground.

New Zealand

The leading run scorer at this ground is Ross Taylor who has 6 centuries and 2 fifties here in 12 games but if you can’t afford hi in your NZ vs WI fantasy team, skip him because he could be a but rusty, not scoring a single run in the T20I series and not having a 50+score in a few months now. Instead, pick the captain Kane Williamson who averages 75+ at this ground with 4 centuries and 5 fifties in just 16 innings here.

With BJ Watling ruled out from the 1st Test, we think Will Young is all set to make his Test debut after playing 70+ FC games with 3 centuries and 2 fifties in his last 6 games. With the ball, don’t forget to include Tim Southee who has been on a wicket-taking streak and even had 3 wickets in 2 outings in the T20I series. Additionally, he’s the highest wicket-taker at the Seddon Park as well.

West Indies

Always known as someone who hasn’t performed consistently at the highest stage, Darren Bravo has been super consistent with the most amazing CPL 2020 season and now, he’s got scores of 135 and 93 in two tour games in New Zealand. Pick him and if you want another batting option, don’t forget to pick Kraigg Brathwaite who scored 47 in the first game and then had a mammoth innings of 246 in the next game.

One of the most traditional all-rounders in the game, please don’t leave out Roston Chase who didn’t perform well in the tour game he played but he will surely perform with both bat and ball. He’s a good captain or vice-captain pick and along with him, Jason Holder is another person you shouldn’t leave out of your PlayerzPot (Use Code “READ1234“) fantasy team, coming off the most successful IPL 2020 season.
