UAE vs NZ Dream11 Match Top Picks

Wicketkeeper - V Aravind

V Aravind is a stable middle-order batter. He is quite consistent and will be a good pick for this game.

Batter - Mark Chapman

Mark Chapman is an aggressive top-order batter who likes to take on the bowlers pretty early in the innings. Picking Chapman might be beneficial as he might accumulate quick, early points with his attacking batting style.

All-rounder - Mitchell Santner

Mitchell Santner is a very efficient T20 bowler and also a pretty handy lower-order batter. Keeping the playing conditions in mind, Santner's bowling will be very valuable for the fantasy contests of the game.

Bowler - Tim Southee

With all his experience and a relatively weaker top order against him, Tim Southee might turn out to be lethal with the new ball. The fact that Southee also bowls in the death overs makes him an even better choice from the bowlers' category for this match.


UAE vs NZ match captain and vice-captain choices

Mark Chapman

Mark Chapman bats in the top order and will enjoy the conditions in the Dubai International Stadium. Chapman will be a differential choice as the captain or vice-captain.

Mitchell Santner

Mitchell Santner is a very efficient and effective T20 bowler. He is also a pretty handy batter lower down the order. So, picking him as the captain or the vice-captain will allow you the opportunity to multiply points in both innings of the match.
