 Info: 

• Travis Head looked in brute form in the 2nd T20I and scored 45 in 22 balls. Back him as Australia top batter. Adam Zampa picked four wickets in the last game and can be backed as top bowler.
• Finn Allen will have to come good in absence of key players. He has the game to play long innings for the team. Back him as top batter. Lockie Ferguson has been in great form, taking five wickets in two games. Back him as top bowler.
• It is a small ground and plenty of sixes will be hit. Back total sixes in the match to be over 15.5.

 Live Streaming: 

TV Channels: This game will be broadcast on TNT Sports and TVNZ.

 Weather & Pitch Report: 

 Weather: ⛅

The weather is not very promising as there are over 55 per cent chances of rain on the match day. The temperature will range between 23 and 18 degrees. 

 Pitch: 🏟️

The pitch will be flat and good for run scoring.  It is a small venue and plenty of sixes are likely to be hit here. We could be in for another high scoring game in the series.

Toss Prediction: 

Captain winning the toss should bowl first. It is a small ground and chasing teams have enjoyed more success here.

 Team NEWS: 

 NZ Team News: 

New Zealand have been dealt with injury blows to two of their key players – Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra. While Ravindra did not play the last game, Conway was injured while keeping and did not bat. Their availability for the third T20I is doubtful.

 AUS Team News: 

Australia have ticked all boxes in the series so far and we don’t see them making a lot of changes in the playing XI for the next game. The only confirmed change will be of David Warner, who has been ruled out of the series due to injury.

 🏆 Winning Chances: 

Australia will start the match as favourites. They have far more quality than New Zealand in this squad. A full strength Australia either way is very tough to beat in this format of the game. Australia have chased a big score and defended a low score so far in two games. It will be very tough for depleted New Zealand to beat Australia. For us, Australia are favourites to win.

Australia to beat New Zealand in 3rd T20.

 Key Players: 

 New Zealand 

 Finn Allen 

Finn Allen will have to take the load of Kiwi batting. In the absence of some of the regular players, he is the senior pro and if New Zealand have to make a comeback, he needs to play well. He scored over 270 runs vs Pakistan and he needs to be at his best against Australia as well.

 Glenn Phillips 

Phillips is also very capable to tackle the Aussie attack. He scored 42 in the last game but since Conway and Ravindra is most likely to miss the game, his responsibility increases more. He needs to score a large chunk of New Zealand’s run if they are to compete vs Australia.

 Lockie Ferguson 

Ferguson continued his good run and bagged 4 wickets for 12 runs in the second T20I. So far, he has taken five wickets and gave away just 35 runs in eight overs in the series.

~

 Australia 

 Travis Head 

Travis Head looked in magnificent form in the second T20I and scored 45 in 22 balls. Head is brutally destructive on his day and he only needs to stay there for 30-40 balls to make an impact. He will be eyeing another good innings in the next game.

 Mitchell Marsh 

Marsh scored 72 in 44 balls in the 1st T20I. In the second game, he scored 26. Marsh has been in great form for Australia across formats in the last year and so. If he gets going, New Zealand will be in a lot of trouble.

 Adam Zampa 

It is a small ground and batters will go after Adam Zampa, presenting him an opportunity to pick wickets. He bagged four wickets for 34 runs in the last game.

 Team Forms: 

  NZ Team Form: 

New Zealand look depleted and beating Australia won’t be easy. They failed to defend a big score in the first game and could not chase an average score in the second match.

 AUS Team Form: 

Australia won the last T20I series vs West Indies and are just a win away from bagging the T20I series vs New Zealand.

 SQUAD: 

 New Zealand (NZ) Squad: 

Mitchell Santner (c), Finn Allen, Mark Chapman, Josh Clarkson, Devon Conway (wk), Lockie Ferguson, Adam Milne, Glenn Phillips, Rachin Ravindra, Ish Sodhi, Ben Sears, Will Young, Tim Southee

 Australia (AUS) Squad:
