Weather Report

The weather looked delightful during this meeting. On Days 3 and 4, there’s a bit of rainfall anticipated as per the prophecy. Otherwise, we can expect a full match to happen with heat drifting around 20 degrees Celsius.

Pitch Report

Though the wicket is grassy green, it might not be entirely fair for pace bowlers. Of late, batters have wanted batting on this surface – the most recent being Tom Latham’s 252 in January 2022 against Bangladesh. Pacers, who extract good bounce and swing, are expected to be useful in the initial days.

Squad Comparison

New Zealand

The Kiwis’ middle-order examines a bit shaky after Ross Taylor’s retirement. Henry Nicholls and Daryl Mitchell have abundance to do in Taylor’s scarcity. Pace quartet Kyle Jamieson, Tim Southee, Neil Wagner, and Matt Henry are expected to be a part of the XI.

Kane Williamson and Trent Boult will miss the first Test at Hagley Oval. Head coach Gary Stead has already secured the top five and the Blackcaps are most probably to go with an all-pace attack with Colin de Grandhomme and Daryl Mitchell being pace all-rounders.

New Zealand Playing XI 

Tom Latham (c), Will Young, Devon Conway, Henry Nicholls, Daryl Mitchell, Colin de Grandhomme, Tom Blundell, Kyle Jamieson, Tim Southee, Neil Wagner, Matt Henry

South Africa

Before the tour started, South Africa was dealt a big blow as their in-form batter Keegan Petersen was ruled out after acquiring COVID-19. Zubayr Hamza has been announced as his replacement.

Captain Dean Elgar has stressed that Sarel Erwee is getting a chance in place of Keegan in both Tests. Keshav Maharaj is expecting to be the lone spin option for the Proteas. Duanne Olivier, Lungi Ngidi, Kagiso Rabada, and Marco Jansen will guide the pace offensively.

Match Prediction for New Zealand vs South Africa 

South Africa thoroughly conquered the Blackcaps in the most extended format of the match in New Zealand. In 20 Tests, these two sides performed facing against each other in New Zealand, South Africa won eight meetings and NZ managed to succeed only one.

South Africa are also coming on the back of a thoughtful series win against India. The Proteas took a much more harmonious side and can come out all guns blazing in the opening Test.

We predict South Africa to win this meeting.
