PAK vs NZ Dream11 prediction: 3 players you can pick as captain or vice-captain for today’s Pakistan vs New Zealand 5th T20I - April 24th, 2023  

Pakistan (PAK) and New Zealand (NZ) are set to face each other in the fifth and final game of the T20I series on Monday, April 24. The PAK vs NZ match will take place at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium in Rawalpindi.

The fourth T20I in Rawalpindi was interrupted by a hail storm. Around 40 minutes after play was stopped, the officials decided that the match would be called off. New Zealand lost their chance of winning the series but can still draw level. Pakistan will go into the last match as favourites.

On that note, here are three players whom you can pick as captain or vice-captain for your Dream11 team for PAK vs NZ. Pick your players wisely.
