NZ batters, particularly the lower middle order - James Neesham &amp; Glenn Phillips fired adequately in the last match and with Martin Guptill &amp; Kane Williamson, who&#39;ve shown some good rhythm in this tournament, will be determined to defeat the Afghans.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>NZ bowling, powered by Trent Boult &amp; Tim Southee, is obviously a bowling attack to reckon with. Especially with spinners Ish Sodhi &amp; Michael Satner picking up scalps, NZ bowling would hopeful to restrict Afghanistan batters to a low score.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Afghanistan batting is charged up and capable of smashing the bowlers around the park. Ahmed Shahzad, Najibullah Zadran, Hazratullah Zazai &amp; Rahmanullah Gurbaz will challenge the experienced NZ bowling lineup.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Afghanistan bowling attack - with pacer Naveen-ul-Haq and spinner Rashid Khan will put up a challenge in front of NZ batters. Afghanistan (and Indian fans) would be hoping for Mujeeb-ur-Rehman to gain back his fitness and trouble the Kiwis.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>NZ v AFG Cricket Match Prediction:<\/h3>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Also Read: <\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/t20-cricket-world-cup\">T20 World Cup 2021<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>New Zealand will start as favourites to win against Afghanistan in this match but this can turn into a close contest.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>NZ v AFG Head-to-Head:<\/h3>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><strong>Total &ndash;<\/strong> 2<\/li>\r\n\t<li><strong>New Zealand &ndash;<\/strong> 2<\/li>\r\n\t<li><strong>Afghanistan &ndash;<\/strong> 0<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n<h3>NZ v AFG Team News:&nbsp;<\/h3>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><strong>New Zealand - <\/strong>Ish Sodhi&#39;s availability is still not confirmed.&nbsp;<\/li>\r\n\t<li><strong>Afghanistan -<\/strong> Mujeeb-ur-Rehman is injured and would be hoping to play in this match.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n<h3>NZ v AFG Probable Playing XI:<\/h3>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><strong>New Zealand -<\/strong> Martin Guptill, Daryl Mitchell, Kane Williamson (c), Devon Conway (wk), Glenn Phillips, James Neesham, Mitchell Santner, Adam Milne, Tim Southee, Ish Sodhi, Trent Boult<\/li>\r\n\t<li><strong>Afghanistan -<\/strong> Hazratullah Zazai, Mohammad Shahzad (wk), Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Mohammad Nabi (c), Najibullah Zadran, Karim Janat, Sharafuddin Ashraf, Gulbadin Naib, Rashid Khan, Naveen-ul-Haq, Hamid Hassan<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n<h3>NZ v AFG Fantasy XI:<\/h3>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><strong>Wicket-keepers -<\/strong> Mohammad Shahzad, Rahmanullah Gurbaz<\/li>\r\n\t<li><strong>Batters -<\/strong> Martin Guptill, Hazratullah Zadran, Kane Williamson<\/li>\r\n\t<li><strong>All-rounders -<\/strong> Mohammad Nabi, Gulbadin Naib, James Neesham<\/li>\r\n\t<li><strong>Bowlers - <\/strong>Trent Boult, Rashid Khan, Ish Sodhi<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n",
