WI vs NZ 1st ODI Predictions and Betting Tips

New Zealand will be at loggerheads with West Indies once again in the ODI series of the New Zealand tour of West Indies 2022. The match will be played at the Kensington Oval, Bridgetown, Barbados on August 17. I have accumulated the top three betting tips from the WI vs NZ match prediction.

The Nicholas Pooran-led side have not won any ODI matches in 2022. They have lost to India, Bangladesh, and yet again to India at home. West Indies’ worst record is 11 successive defeats in 2004-05. New Zealand are coming off a resounding win against Ireland in ODIs. They are also in form and have warmed up nicely by beating the hosts in the T20 series. With skipper Kane Williamson back, the visitors’ batting looks even more stronger. The right-hand batter though is short of runs. He would be hoping to get some runs under his belt against the out-of-form West Indies. Have a look at my top three picks from the WI vs NZ match prediction.

WI vs NZ Player Bets:

Brooks, Pooran and Conway are my top picks from the WI vs NZ match prediction. Hurry up and place your bet.

Shamarh Brooks to score over 22.5 runs

If there is one West Indies batter you should surely put your bet on, it's Shamarh Brooks. Apart from the white-ball series against Bangladesh, the 33-year-old has been in sublime form in white-ball cricket over the last few months. Brooks scored 60, 6 and 101* in the 3-match ODI series against Netherlands in May-June before hitting 70 and 42 and 18 runs in the 3-match ODI series in Pakistan. He struck 101*, 70, 42, 18, 33, 5, 4, 46, 35 and 0 runs in his last 10 strikes. He has played 18 ODIs in his career and scored 613 runs at an average of 36.05. He made his ODI debut in 2022 and sailed his way after a lot of experience in the domestic circuit. This looks promising with respect to this betting tip from the WI vs NZ match prediction. Brooks holds a decent record playing in home conditions and averages 28.88 in the country. Brooks was fantastic in the T20I series that took place before this ODI series and posted the scores of 42, 7 and 56* runs. This will determine his ease batting against the kiwi bowlers. 1XBET offers the odds of 1.832 for Shamarh Brooks to score over 22.5 runs in the upcoming match and you should take it for a heavy payday.

Nicholas Pooran to score over 23.5 runs

Nicholas Pooran confirmed his status as one of the most exciting young batting talents in the modern game with a sublime innings of 118 off 103 in West Indies' defeat to Sri Lanka at the 2019 World Cup, but only four years earlier the idea that he would play international cricket seemed fanciful. He is currently leading his team in the series and also makes up for the best batting prospect from the WI vs NZ match prediction. He has played 46 ODIs in his career and mustered 1434 runs at an average of 35.85. This already surpasses our desired target, making it a safe pick. This includes a century and 10 fifties. Before coming to this series, he played a series against Bangladesh and India. He posted 18, 0 and 73 vs BAN; 25, 74 and 42 runs vs India in the series. This should instil some confidence in this hot betting tip. He has bright figures batting at home conditions and maintains an average of 32.00. Although his average dropped from 37.33 in 2021 to 21.66 in 2022, he is determined to smash it out of the park in the upcoming game. 1XBET offers the odds of 1.832 for Pooran to score over 23.5 runs in the WI vs nZ head-to-head encounter and you should pick it for a hefty payout.

Devon Conway to score over 31.5 runs

The South African born New Zealand cricketer is my first pick from the WI vs NZ match prediction. The left handed batsmen who shifted to New Zealand in 2017 can also go behind the stumps. The prolific batter has only played 3 ODIs but has a lot of domestic experience behind his back. He scored 225 runs in those 3 ODIs at an average of 75.00. He played those games against Bangladesh in 2021 and posted 27, 72 and 126 runs. He has played 82 List-A games and amassed 3329 runs at an average of 45.60. This looks pretty positive with respect to our betting tip and should encourage you to pick it. He has fantastic statistics over all formats and his current form goes in favour of this betting tip. In the three T20Is against WI before this game, he registered the scores of 43, 42 and 21 runs, terrorizing the Caribbean bowlers. Devon Conway is expected to score over 31.5 runs in the WI vs NZ head-to-head match and you should take it for a profitable return. 1XBET offers the odds of 1.8 for the same.
