PAK vs NZ Today Match Prediction – Team Analysis
Pakistan (PAK)
Pakistan’s T20I team has won only one of their last eight T20I games leading up to the second match of the series. We’re backing Mohammad Rizwan to be Pakistan’s highest run-scorer, needing 19 runs to bring up 3000 in T20I innings. Mohammad Amir, with 325 T20 wickets across his career, is our top pick for Pakistan’s top wicket-taker on Saturday.
After a disappointing opening T20I of the series that lasted only two balls, Pakistan and New Zealand will face each other again in Rawalpindi for the second match of the series on Saturday evening. The match is scheduled to begin at 19:30 local time at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium on April 20th.
Despite the shortened game, Pakistan’s former skipper Shaheen Shah Afridi managed to take a wicket. We expect Pakistan’s bowling unit to dominate New Zealand’s batters, giving them the upper hand to win the game.
Babar Azam returned to captaincy in the last game, and Mohammad Amir made a comeback to international cricket. Abrar Ahmed, Irfan Khan, and Usman Khan made their debut for Pakistan on Thursday, and with no new injuries, we anticipate seeing the same XI.

New Zealand (NZ)
The New Zealand team will be facing Pakistan in the upcoming T20I match, having not won any of their last five T20Is after the no-result on Thursday. Mark Chapman, who has hit one hundred and seven half-centuries in T20Is, is our top pick for New Zealand’s highest run-scorer, while Ben Sears, with a T20I strike rate of 15.3, is expected to be their top wicket-taker against Pakistan.
New Zealand will be looking to take a 1-0 lead in the series, but playing against Pakistan in Rawalpindi is always a challenge, and they will need to be at their best to secure a positive result.
Tim Robinson made his international debut in the last game and is likely to retain his spot for this match. As no other players faced a ball or bowled a delivery, we anticipate New Zealand to remain unchanged.
