New Zealand vs Pakistan Fantasy Cricket Tips

The second T20 international between New Zealand and Pakistan takes place at the Seddon Park on Sunday.

The first game saw a spirited Pakistan side run the Kiwis close with a ball in hand. Despite Haris Rauf and Shaheen Afridi picking five wickets between them, Tim Seifert ensured that the hosts got off to a winning start in this series.

The task gets even tougher for the tourists with the big guns, Kane Williamson, Trent Boult and Kyle Jamieson returning to the T20I side. Boasting a well-balanced side, led by the calm and composed Kane Williamson, New Zealand would look forward to sealing a series win on Sunday.

However, Pakistan cannot be taken lightly at all, especially in this format. With the likes of Haider Ali and captain Shadab Khan capable of winning matches single-handedly, Pakistan will eye revenge in this fixture.

Given how Shaheen and Rauf performed in the previous game, the Kiwis are in for a tough test in Hamilton.

Although New Zealand is the odds-on favourite to win the game, Pakistan has enough in the tank to level the series in what should be a great game of T20 cricket. With some of the world's best T20 players taking the field on Sunday, Dream11 enthusiasts are in for a treat!

Pitch Report

A high-scoring game beckons at the Seddon Park with there being little help on offer for the bowlers. The ball should come on fairly well with extra bounce available for the pacers.

However, the margin for error is quite small, given the dimensions of the ground, which should play into the hands of the batsmen. With dew also possibly playing a part, both teams would ideally want to chase upon winning the toss.

180 is par at this venue although both teams are capable of breaching it with ease.
