NZ vs SL Dream11 Team Prediction and Suggestions for Thursday’s first Test match between New Zealand and Sri Lanka: After securing a thrilling win over England in the second Test, New Zealand will look to sustain the momentum against Sri Lanka in a two-match series, scheduled to start from Thursday. The opening Test match between New Zealand and Sri Lanka will take place at the Hagley Oval in Christchurch. Earlier, the Kiwis became only the fourth side in the history of the game to win after following on in the final Test against England. New Zealand pace attack will be without Kylie Jamieson due to a back injury. All the 13 New Zealand players who featured in the last outing against England have been named in the Test squad for the series against Sri Lanka.

The Asian side will be aiming for a whitewash against the Tim Southee-led Kiwis to stay alive in the World Test Championship (WTC) final race. Sri Lanka, the third-placed side in WTC standings, will feature in three ODIs and three T20Is against New Zealand after the completion of the Test series.
