The intensity of the matches is always at its peak when two heavyweights lock horns in any format of the game. Similarly, matches between Pakistan and New Zealand have always been interesting. According to the Pakistan vs New Zealand schedule, the ODI series is beginning from January 9.
Despite losing the red-ball fixtures to England and New Zealand, their ODI record of losing just one fixture last year should give them confidence going into the series opener. However, the Kane Williamson-led side have the momentum and will look to clinch the white-ball series. With the 2023 ODI World Cup around the corner, both sides will look to experiment with their squads so as to find their core team just in time for the mega event.
Speaking about their head-to-head records in the 50-over format, the Men in Green have got the better of New Zealand as they have registered 55 of their 107 meetings. On the other hand, the Black Caps have won the contest on 48 occasions with one match ending in a tie and three fixtures yielding no result.
Pakistan are at an advantage when it comes to the shortest format as they have won 18 times in 29 games whereas the Black Caps have won 11 games. Meanwhile, with regards to their red-ball record, Pakistan yet again stands tall against the rival side. The two have contested in 62 matches, with Pakistan winning 25 outings and Kiwis 14. The other 23 fixtures have have ended in draw.
The fans will be keenly following the Pakistan vs New Zealand live score during the ODI series as it is expected to be a close affair.
