ENG vs NZ Dream11 Prediction

The Super 8 fixture between England and New Zealand in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 will be staged at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on February 27, 2026. England arrive with momentum while New Zealand look to confirm their qualification in the semi-finals of the tournament. England won their last outing by 2 wickets against Pakistan, in which captain Harry Brook produced a match-winning century to take his side home in a pressure scenario.

New Zealand, meanwhile, came back strongly after a rain-affected match earlier in the Super 8 stage, registering a win over Sri Lanka, where skipper Mitchell Santner played a crucial counterattacking knock, along with all-round support from Rachin Ravindra. The Kiwis will need to win this encounter to secure their place in the semi-final without relying on net run rate.

Inform all-rounders Will Jacks and Rachin Ravindra emerge as the best captaincy options as per our ENG vs NZ Dream11 team prediction, while Jos Buttler and Glenn Phillips can be considered for vice-captaincy in fantasy combinations.
