NZ vs WI Today Match Prediction – Who Will Win the 3rd T20I?

The NZ vs WI 3rd T20 match is scheduled to take place on Saturday at Saxton Oval, Nelson. New Zealand levelled the series with a 3-run win against the West Indies in the last game. New Zealand will look to build on the momentum and take the lead, while the West Indies aim to make a strong comeback and snatch the initiative back from the hosts.  

West Indies began the series with a win, but their batters did not perform well in the second T20i. The bowling unit's below-average performance led to their loss, and their middle order failed to score quick boundaries while under pressure.
