Sultan of Johor Cup 2023: India vs New Zealand preview, predicted lineups, match prediction and live streaming details

India will square off against New Zealand in their third and final league game of the Sultan of Johor Cup 2023 on Monday (30th October).

India had an underwhelming beginning to their campaign as they had to share spoils with Pakistan after playing a 3-3 draw in their opening game. However, they bounced back strongly by defeating Malaysia 3-1 in their second game.

On the other hand, New Zealand made a winning start to their campaign by defeating Malaysia 3-2 in their first game. However, they lost their next game 2-3 to Pakistan.

India need at least a draw here to secure their semifinal berth, while it is a must-win game for New Zealand if they want to advance to the last four.

India vs New Zealand Prediction

The way India came back from behind, twice in the tournament, to draw the game against Pakistan, it gave them a lot of self-belief. It was pretty evident from the game against Malaysia and they clinched quite a comprehensive victory. They have the momentum on their side which will work in their favour.

At the same time, New Zealand have looked vulnerable in both matches they have played. In their last game against Pakistan, New Zealand were outplayed for the majority of the game despite their attempt to come back during the final few minutes.

Prediction: India are expected to win this match.
