New Zealand vs Pakistan: On Saturday, December 09, 2023, New Zealand will take on Pakistan in the 3rd T20I of the three-match series at the Queenstown Events Centre in Queenstown. Under the leadership of Nida Dar, Pakistan has already clinched the series winning the first two matches.

After facing two consecutive defeats in the first two games of the series, New Zealand is determined to reclaim some pride and momentum in the final match of the series. In the second T20I, New Zealand bowlers managed to restrict Pakistan to a low score of 137. However, their batters once again displayed a disappointing performance as they struggled and failed to chase down the target. 

The host nation lost the match by 10 runs. Maddy Green and Georgia Plimmer tried their best to take New Zealand over the line but failed to do so. With the home side trailing 2-0 in the series, the clash became a pivotal moment for them to gain momentum moving ahead into the upcoming ODI series.

On the other hand, Pakistan is riding high on confidence having already made history as the first Asian team to beat New Zealand in a three match T20I series. Muneeba Ali, Alia Riaz, Sadia Iqbal and Fatima Sana showed exceptional skills in the second T20I. Pacer Fatima Sana bowled brilliantly claiming a three-wicket haul as New Zealand were able to score only 127 runs in their 20 overs.

Pakistan captain Nida Dar will be hoping that the team can maintain their standards with bat and ball in the series finale too. Pakistan will aim to repeat their heroic performance in the 3rd fixture as well to end the series with a historic moment for the nation.
