NZL vs NLD 1st ODI match prediction 29 Mar 2022

NZ vs NED ODI 1 of 3 Predictions & Betting Tips

New Zealand and Netherlands will square off against each other on March 29, Tuesday to play the 1st of the three match ODI series which is a part of Netherlands tour of New Zealand 2022. The match is scheduled to commence from 3:30 AM at the Bay Oval in Mount Maunganui. I have gathered three of the top betting tips from the NZ vs NED match prediction ahead of the match day for you.

The one-off T20I match which was scheduled to be played on Friday was abandoned due to consistent rainfall. Following the abandonment of the only T20I, the two captains shared the trophy at Napier. The tour is now reduced to a three match ODI series with the first one to be played at Mount Maunganui while the other two will be played at Hamilton. Both the sides are situated at the bottom of the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup Super League at the moment. The Kiwis have played three and won as many while Netherlands have featured in seven matches out of which they only managed to win one. Just before the start of the ODI series, the Black Caps suffered a major setback as all-rounder Mark Chapman tested positive for Covid-19. George Worker has been named as Chapman’s replacement and will join the team on Monday. The rest of the team is in good health and is hoping to feature in the opening match on Tuesday. As we gear up for this cracker of a contest, let us have a look at top betting tips from the NZ vs NED match prediction.

New Zealand To Score Over 37.5 Runs Before 1st Dismissal

The Black Caps will now take a break from Test cricket and will shift their focus in ODI cricket after almost a year of absence. They last engaged in a three match ODI series against Bangladesh back in March 2021 and will be resuming the 50-overs cricket after almost a year. Back then, Henry Nicholls and Martin Guptill were the regular openers for the Black Caps. The two formed a solid opening partnership and scored runs at an average of 42.00 per game for the opening wicket in that series which is certainly above our target. This sums up to 126 runs from three matches. The two posted scores of 54, 28, 44 for the first wicket against the Bengal Tigers. Prior to that, the Kiwis collided against India back in 2019 to play a three match ODI series wherein the openers scored runs at an average of 94.66 for the opening wicket. Their scores read - 85, 93 and 106 in the three matches they played against the Men in Blue. However, in the upcoming series against Netherlands a dozen of players including the likes of skipper Kane Williamson are featuring in the IPL and will not be a part of the ODI series. Either of stand-in captain Tom Latham or Henry Nicholls is expected to open the innings along with veteran Kiwi opener Martin Guptill. We are expecting the two to provide a fiery start to New Zealand’s innings and score over 37.5 runs. Head over to Pari Match and place your bet on New Zealand at odds of 1.87 and get some handsome returns.

NZ vs NED Player Bets:

Tom Latham and Henry Nicholls are my top two player betting tips from the NZ vs NED match prediction. I am certain that the aforementioned players are going to make you a lot of money.

Tom Latham To Score Over 25.5 Runs

New Zealand’s stand-in captain and son of former all-rounder Rod Latham, Tom Latham is my next pick from the NZ vs NED match prediction. Latham is an opener in test cricket but has batted in almost every position from No.1 to No. 9 in limited overs cricket. The southpaw last played an ODI game against Bangladesh last year. The Canterbury born cricketer holds an experience of 102 ODI matches wherein he has racked up 2824 runs at an average of 34.02 which is fairly above our target. The 29-year-old batter has 5 centuries and 16 fifties to his name. He was just sensational in the series against Bangladesh wherein he hammered 128 runs. He posted scores of 18, 110* in the two games he batted in. Against India in the three match ODI series, he mustered 108 runs at an average of 54.00. Tom Latham posted scores of 32*, 7, 69 in that series. The interesting fact is that his average instantly jumps to 57.70 while playing as a captain in ODIs. He has led the New Zealand side on 13 different occasions to pile 577 runs. After a careful analysis of the past datas and stats, we have backed Tom Latham to score over 25.5 runs in the upcoming game against Netherlands. For now, go to Pari Match and place your bet on Tom Latham at odds of 1.87 and get some amazing returns.

Henry Nicholls To Score Over 33.5 Runs

An aggressive left-handed top-order batsman from Canterbury is my third and final pick from the NZ vs NED match prediction. Nicholls is a fluent striker of the ball and enjoys playing white ball cricket more than the longest format of the game. Since making his ODI debut against Sri Lanka back in 2015, the southpaw has featured in close to 52 ODI matches wherein he has accumulated 1409 runs at an average of 36.12. He has struck just a hundred and has 11 fifties to his name. In the three match ODI series against Bangladesh, the 30-year-old hammered 80 runs at an average of 40.00 per game. The top-order batsman was in sensational form in the series against India at home. He added 199 runs to his tally of total runs at an average of 66.33 from three matches. He posted scores of 80, 41, 78 in that series against India. He received the Player of the Match Award for his 80 run knock off 103 deliveries the last time he played at Mount Maunganui. We are expecting him to score over 33.5 runs in the upcoming match. Head over to Pari Match and place your bet on Henry Nicholls at odds of 1.87 and get some exciting returns.
