IND vs NZ Today Match LIVE Cricket Score, Full Scorecard: Watch Here New Zealand playing a game prior to the final in Dubai will give some idea of the conditions on what to expect compared to Australia who had played their first game at the venue in the semifinal. However, to be fair New Zealand did play a good game against India though it was their first time compared to India already playing a couple of games before it. They were bamboozled by Varun Chakarvarthy's willy wrist spin in that group game who played a pivotal role in India's win. India vs New Zealand CT Final 2025 Playing 11: Know here How will the pitch play? The Dubai wicket has been a low-scoring surface compared to the wickets in Pakistan. The pitch has been conducive to the spinners and once the ball gets older and softer in the final overs batting has become a lot harder when compared with the new ball in the powerplay. Hence regardless of the first innings or second innings teams would want to capitalize in the first 10 overs when the ball is new and hard. How will the weather play? The temperature is expected to be around 32 degrees centigrade for the game according to the Accuweather app. There has not been much dew in the second innings at this venue. With the temperature as high as it is and the pressure of the final the teams winning the toss might look to opt to bat first and put runs on the board.
