Pakistan and New Zealand are currently playing a five-match T20I series, with the first game being washed out due to rain. Pakistan won the second match by seven wickets. It is a huge series for both sides, with the T20I World Cup set to start in under a month. While the Pakistani side has a few of its key stars back, the Kiwis are without their big-name players who are taking part in the IPL.
Pakistan (PAK) and Babar Azam will want to get some game time considering there is a paucity of international cricket right now. After the first game got washed out, the home team will have to hope that the weather clears up for a full game of cricket on Saturday. With Shaheen Shah Afridi, Mohammad Amir, and Naseem Shah heading the bowling attack, the Pakistani side is a very dangerous team for any opposition.
New Zealand (NZ) comes into the tour under the captaincy of Michael Bracewell, who himself is making a comeback after a year. James Neesham and Ish Sodhi are the only two players with considerable experience in the squad. While a series win may be out of the question, most of the youngsters in the Kiwi camp will use this tour as an experience.

Player Picks
Babar Azam PAK | BAT
The Pakistani skipper has been in decent nick with the bat during the recent PSL 2024 tournament. The added responsibility of leading his side will weight heavy on Babar Azam. Pakistan will hope that Babar Azam can score some runs with the huge T20I World Cup around the corner.
Mark Chapman NZ | ALL
In the absence of some of their big stars, New Zealand will be heavily dependent on Mark Chapman. The batter is one of the most accomplished against both pace and spin and has the penchant to score big runs.
Mohammad Rizwan PAK | WK
If Babar Azam is batting well how can we forget Mohammad Rizwan. The Pakistani wicketkeeper has been in great form with the bat in the last few months. The right-handed batter has the ability to score runs at a quick pace and force the pressure back onto the opposition.
Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team
Mohammad Amir
PAK | BOWL
The veteran pacer is back to international cricket after four years. While he has been bowling well in the PSL, it is the international format that could prove to be difficult for the 32-year-old.
Dean Foxcroft
NZ | ALL
New Zealand selectors have shown great faith in young Dean Foxcroft. The right-handed batter hasn’t been in great form in recent time but with his talents, Foxcroft could be a player to be reckoned with in the years to come.
