The England men’s tour of New Zealand ran from 18 October to 1 November 2025, with a three-match ODI series played between 26 October and 1 November 2025 — three ODIs that carried bilateral pride and preparation value ahead of the summer white-ball calendar. Fans followed the series closely on Linebet, where they could track live scores, stats, and place bets on match outcomes.
Short recap of matches
1st ODI — 26 Oct (Bay Oval, Mount Maunganui): England posted 223, powered by a big Harry Brook knock, but New Zealand chased it down thanks to a composed Daryl Mitchell 78* and contributions through the middle order; NZ won by 4 wickets.
2nd ODI — 29 Oct (Hamilton): New Zealand bowled England out for 175, with Blair Tickner returning in style (4 wickets) and the hosts reaching the target comfortably; NZ won by 5 wickets to take a 2–0 lead.
3rd ODI — 1 Nov (Wellington): A tighter finish in Wellington saw New Zealand scrape home by 2 wickets, sealed by a late partnership and another strong showing from Tickner and newcomers like Zak Foulkes — the series finished 3–0 to New Zealand.
The clean sweep boosted New Zealand’s ODI depth and confidence at home, with Daryl Mitchell named player of the ODI series for consistent run-scoring; England left with questions about adapting to Kiwi conditions and middle-order stability ahead of upcoming tours.
Predictions for similar future fixtures & best markets
Looking ahead to like-format fixtures in New Zealand, favor the home side in match-winner and series markets — New Zealand’s seamers and spin depth thrive on home pitches. Best betting markets to consider: match winner, top NZ run-scorer, top wicket-taker, and total runs under/over (day/night conditions often suppress totals). For each match, look for in-play value on lower-risk markets like top batsman – top 5 and over/under team total.
