Dream11 Fantasy Team for 2nd Test
Wicket-keepers
Watling is our first-choice wicket-keeper after his brilliant performance against Pakistan in the recent Test series.
<Batsmen
Burns, Conway, Root, Williamson and Nicholls fill the batting slots in our Dream11. Burns backed his good form in the County Championship with a resilient first innings in the first Test. Conway made history by scoring a double century on debut. Root and Williamson need no introduction and would walk into any Test team in the world. In a difficult situation after New Zealand were reduced to 114 for 3 in the first innings of the first match, Nicholls showed his ability to play a long innings under pressure.
<All-Rounders
Grandhomme and Ollie Robinson are the all-rounders of our Dream11. Robinson, who made his Test debut at Lord’s, caught the opportunity with both hands to grab four wickets in the first innings of the match. While Grandhomme disappointed in the first Test, he has the quality to make good in the second. The New Zealand all-rounder has over a thousand Test runs scored at a 35-plus average to add to 47 wickets at 31.89.
