Preview

Pakistan and New Zealand are set to clash against each other in match 19 of the World T20 Series on Tuesday, October 26 at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium. While Pakistan will compete in their second game, New Zealand will open their campaign against the men in green. Pakistan will be heading into this game with a lot of confidence after thrashing India by 10 wickets. Not only did they clicked well as a unit on the night of the biggest cricket rivalry but were absolutely ruthless. They outplayed India in every department of the game and as a result comprehensively won the game. New Zealand on the other hand will have their task cut out against a powerful unit. They have the players with both bat and ball who are more than capable to single handedly take the game home. A lot would be expected out of the pace attack of the two sides. Kiwis have the likes of Tim Southee and Trent Boult who are known for their craftiness with ball in hand whereas Shaheen Shah Afridi will be the spearhead of Pakistan’s bowling attack. He impressed one and all with his discipline in the last game. Ahead of this mighty fixture, let us have a look at how these teams will shape up for today’s clash

Pitch Report

The pitch in Sharjah has generally been low and slow. Spinners can induce some spin from the surface. Pacers on the other hand should bank on their variations, cutters to get the best out of the playing surface. The track has been generous to the team batting second.

Match Prediction

Expect a rip roaring encounter. Both teams possess quality in their lineup. While Pakistan would look to extend their winning run in the tournament, New Zealand will be keen to start their campaign on a positive note. Babar Azam’s men are just a notch ahead of their opposition when it comes to the batting department. And that is the reason why we think the men in green will emerge victorious.
