Kane Williamson's New Zealand (NZ) take on Kusal Mendis's Sri Lanka (SL) in the ongoing sixteenth edition of the World Cup. Match No. 41 is all set to take place on Thursday, November 09, 2023, at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bangalore at 14:00 PM IST. The Kiwis have suffered a mini-slump in form as they have now lost four consecutive games after winning the first four fixtures. The Lankan Lions have already been eliminated from the competition and they will look to spoil NZ's party in what is going to be the last respective league game for both teams. Ahead of the game, here is a look at the top player picks, the important player stats, the top captain and vice-captain choices, and the best-predicted XIs for the fantasy contests of this encounter.
As mentioned, the BlackCaps began the campaign in a solid way as they won all of their opening four matches against defending champions England, the Netherlands, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan. The runners-up from the last two editions in 2015 and 2019, the Kiwis then suffered back-to-back losses against India, Australia, South Africa, and Pakistan. With eight points and a net run rate of +0.398, the New Zealanders are placed in the fourth position in the table and still have a realistic chance of sealing that no. fourth spot.
