India vs New Zealand 1st Test, Dream11 Prediction: The first test between India and New Zealand is scheduled to get underway on October 16 at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru. India recently dominated Bangladesh at home, while Sri Lanka are coming off a humiliating series defeat against Sri Lanka.

India have not lost a single test series at home since 2013. Can New Zealand challenge them, or will it be yet another home series win for Rohit Sharma and co.? Without doubt, India will enter the match as favorites, and they have gone with a strong unit, while New Zealand will be led by a new captain, Tom Latham.

IND vs NZ: Ground Pitch Report

The pitch in Bengaluru is expected to assist bowlers, as there is a prediction of rain for the coming week here. That will make the ball swing more, and outfield will be slow. Then, after the first two days, the cracks might open, and it will become more spin-friendly conditions.
