ENG vs NZ 2023, 2nd T20I: Match Prediction, Dream11 Team, Fantasy Tips & Pitch Report | England vs New Zealand

After a crushing defeat in the first T20I, New Zealand will lock horns against England in the second game at the Emirates Old Trafford Stadium, Manchester on Friday.

England defeated the visitors in the first game, as the hosts successfully chased the mere target of 140 in 14 overs.

Batting first, New Zealand completely collapsed in front of the dominating English bowling attack. They lost wickets at several intervals and thus failed to put a strong total on board. On the contrary, England dominated in every aspect of the game. Debutant Bryndon Curse shined with the ball for England and was awarded ‘Man of the Match’ for his phenomenal spell of 3/23.

England vs New Zealand 2023, second T20I:

• Date and Time: September 1; 06:00 pm local | 05:00 pm GMT | 10:30 pm IST
