NZ vs ENG Probable Winners:

With their heads against the wall after two consecutive Test losses, New Zealand must make a dramatic improvement to avoid a series whitewash. Their struggles in batting, bowling, and fielding during this series, however, indicate that a quick turnaround will be difficult. England, on the contrary hand, arrives in high spirits after completely outperforming the hosts. Considering the team combination, New Zealand is expected to win this match.
