NK v PK-A Dream11 Team Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips & Playing-11 Updates for 1st Unofficial T20I – Dec 27, 2020
Northern Knights will lock horns with Pakistan A in the first of the five unofficial T20I games series at the Seddon Park in Hamilton on Sunday. Pakistan A will play five unofficial T20I matches, which will include three games against New Zealand's local clubs - Northern Knights, Wellington Firebirds, and Canterbury Kings. These fixtures will be followed by two matches against New Zealand XI.
After winning the unofficial Test series against New Zealand A, the Rohail Nazir-led side will take on Anton Devcich and co. in the first unofficial T20I game of their New Zealand tour. The Pakistan A side will be missing the services of most of their experienced players who helped them register a victory in the Test against New Zealand A.
Meanwhile, hosts Northern Knights are looking balanced, with the likes of in-form Tim Seifert joining the squad. The Anton Devcich-led side is coming off a solid performance in the Ford Trophy.
Northern Knights will start as favourites to win this game against Pakistan A.
