Player Picks

9
C

Babar Azam PAK | BAT

He has been one of the best batters in the series and is the leading run-scorer. He has made half-centuries in both matches so far and will be looking to make it three in a row.

8

Devon Conway NZ | BAT

The left-handed opener won the Player of the Match award in the last game as he scored 101 runs at a strike rate of 109.78. His innings helped New Zealand post a total of 261 runs on the board.

9
C

Kane Williamson NZ | BAT

He scored a hafl-century in the last game, which was only his second in last ten innings. This tour has been a success for the Kiwi captain, as he scored a double-century in the first Test. Williamson will be looking to end the series on a high note.

7

Mohammad Nawaz PAK | ALL

He was the most successful as well the economical bowler for Pakistan in the previous game. Nawaz picked four wickets with the ball while giving away just 38 runs in ten overs.

8.5

Naseem Shah PAK | BOWL

He is the leading wicket-taker in the series and has picked eight wickets in two matches at an average of 14.37, an economy of 6.1, and a strike rate of 14.1.

8.5

Tim Southee NZ | BOWL

He bowled just six overs in the last game and picked up two wickets while giving away just 33 runs. His spell also included a maiden over. He will again play a key role with the new ball for New Zealand.

Mohammad Rizwan PAK | WK

The wicketkeeper-batter started the series with a half-century and helped Pakistan win the game by six wickets. He has scored 105 runs in two games so far at a strike rate of 77.2.

Fakhar Zaman PAK | BAT

The 32-year-old batter is back to open the innings for Pakistan in this format. He made 56 runs off 74 deliveries in the first game and provided a solid start to the team.
