These two teams will face each other in a three-match T20I series in order to prepare for the upcoming ICC T20 World Cup 2026, coming up in six months&#39; time.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The first game will begin on October 1 at Bay Oval in Mount Maunganui at 11:45 AM IST. Australia suffered a blow as Glenn Maxwell was ruled out with an injury. For New Zealand, Rachin Ravindra is also doubtful for the first game.

There will be swing for the fast bowlers early on, but it will settle down as the game goes on. Hence, the toss will be crucial, and chasing is recommended.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h4><strong>NZ vs AUS: Possible XIs<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>New Zealand<\/strong>: Devon Conway, Tim Seifert (wk), Rachin Ravindra, Daryl Mitchell, Mark Chapman, Michael Bracewell (c), Zakary Foulkes, Kyle Jamieson, Ish Sodhi, Matt Henry, Jacob Duffy<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Australia<\/strong>: Travis Head, Mitchell Marsh (c), Marcus Stoinis, Mitchell Owen, Tim David, Matthew Short, Alex Carey (wk), Sean Abbott, Ben Dwarshuis, Adam Zampa, Josh Hazlewood<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h4><strong>NZ vs AUS: Player to Watch Out For<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Probable Best Batter: Travis Head (Australia)<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Travis Head will carry on his aggressive batting approach, which can put pressure on the opposition from the first over.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Probable Best Bowler: Josh Hazlewood (Australia)<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Josh Hazlewood has been great in shorter formats.
