New Zealand vs West Indies Match Prediction

Facts:

  • Jayden Seales has picked up 12 wickets in his last three ODI innings, including a six-fer against Pakistan in August.
  • West Indies last won back-to-back ODI matches against New Zealand in December 2103.

New Zealand vs West Indies Chance of Winning

New Zealand will look to continue their red-hot form in ODIs when they take on West Indies in the first match of the home series. The Kiwis have won all of their last six ODIs since their runner-up finish at the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 in March. Mitchell Santner-led side is missing a few key players due to various reasons, but it boasts enough talent to win this fixture.

West Indies will look to bounce back from their shocking ODI series defeat against Bangladesh last month. Shai Hope-led side has been poor across formats this year, and it’s been worse in ODIs. West Indies have won just one of their last five ODI meetings against New Zealand and are unlikely to improve that record on Sunday.

  • New Zealand’s chances of winning - 60%
  • West Indies’ chances of winning - 40%

New Zealand vs West Indies Prediction & Tips 2025

Daryl Mitchell has been a consistent run-getter for New Zealand across formats this year. He is the leading run-scorer for his team in 2025, with 642 runs in just 15 ODI innings. Mitchell clinched the Player of the Series award in the last bilateral ODI series against England, for scoring 178 runs in three innings. He boasts an impressive record against West Indies and is likely to score a fifty in this fixture.

For the West Indies, captain Shai Hope and No. 3 batter Keacy Carty have been brilliant in ODIs this year. Both players have managed to score 500-plus runs in ODIs at an average of around 50 this year. Hope is just 49 runs away from completing 6000 ODI runs, and is likely to achieve this feat in this game against New Zealand.
