New Zealand has a 1-0 lead in the ongoing series against the West Indies and would like to double it by winning the next match and registering another series win by clinching the next game as well.
The second match of the series will be played at McLen Park in Napier, which is expected to dish out a wicket that will be good to bat on, and one could anticipate a high-scoring match.
The batters will have to negotiate the first hour of play and can then lay their shots by trusting the pace and bounce of the surface
The pitch should also have some help for the pacers as well, and they should look to make the most of oy bu piyvgjing the ball in the right areas and making the batters drive the ball to induce an edge and get them caught in skips or by the keeper.
As far as the spinners are concerned, they will have to do the job of holding one end up and create pressure on the batters to give the bowler bowling from the other end the chance of picking up wickets.
Having said that, it's not like there won't be any help whatsoever on the surface for the bowlers.
As we saw in the previous spinners from both teams kept things tight by bowling economically and in return were able to pick wickets, that's what they would like to do in this match as well
The team that wins the toss should look to bat first and score 310-320 to increase their chances of winning by picking up early wickets in the second innings.
Both teams would back themselves to win the match and gain confidence for the final game, as they have the resources to do so in both the batting and bowling departments.
Conclusion
New Zealand would like to make the most of the good batting conditions that are expected to be on offer during the second ODI against West Indies and register another win at home in ODI cricket since 2019.
As far as the West Indies is concerned, the visitors would eye a strong comeback in the second match to keep the series alive and put their best foot forward in the third ODI to win it.
