Batting will be relatively easier in the first half of the first innings. However, as the pitch begins to wear down a little, spinners will come into play and batters will struggle to score freely. The ball also moves around a lot here under lights, so fast bowlers will have their chance in the first 10-odd overs of the second innings. Once dew sets in, though, the ball will come on nicely to the bat, and batting will become comfortable. The weather in Chennai will be mostly warm and humid. Team New Zealand Last 5 Matches Details- W, W, W, W, W . Team Afghanistan Last 5 Matches Details - W, L, L, L, L. Toss: To Bowl - Both matches at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in the World Cup have been won by the team batting second. Thus, the toss-winning team is almost certain to field first. Prediction - Afghanistan will be flying high after that memorable win against England. New Zealand will be a different challenge. The Black Caps are functioning like a well-oiled unit and don’t get flustered easily. Moreover, they are much better players of spin than the English. However, if Afghanistan bats first and puts up another 270-ish total on the board, they might spring another surprise. We are backing New Zealand as the winners of this contest.
