New Zealand vs Pakistan, 1st T20I: Match Details, Live Streaming, Pitch Report, Weather Forecast, Probable Playing XIs, Dream 11 Prediction.

New Zealand vs Pakistan: New Zealand is all set to host Pakistan for a 3-game T20I series starting from 3rd December 2023, Sunday onwards. While the two teams have come back from facing some disappointing games in the recent past, they are looking to revamp and end the year on a higher note.

Pakistan’s disappointing performance against Bangladesh and New Zealand’s disheartening defeat against South Africa should act like stepping stones towards the team’s success at the 2022-25 ICC Championship.

The New Zealand vs PakistanT20I games will be followed by an ODI series, which holds utmost importance in the ICC Championship, making it crucial for the two teams to rise from the Ashes. While Sophie Devine will be seen leading the side, Suzie Bates with her recent World record is catching eyes of all with her brilliant form, helping the team gain momentum in the first few overs.

Pakistan’s captain Nida Dar, Muneeba Ali, and Diana Baig remain among the favourites of the squad. Bismah Maroof adds experience to the side.
