NZ vs PAK Final Match Preview

The New Zealand cricket team topped the points table of the Pakistan tri-series by winning both matches with emphatic margins. After defeating tournament hosts Pakistan by 78 runs, the ‘Black Caps’ trounced South Africa by six wickets with eight balls to spare. Kane Williamson and Glenn Phillips have played a key role in New Zealand’s success during their unbeaten campaign so far, considering both cricketers plundered match-winning tons against South Africa and Pakistan respectively. Devon Conway also made handy runs against South Africa a couple of days ago in Lahore. With the ball, speed demon Matt Henry has taken the highest number of wickets in the series among all bowlers in the lead-up to the final.

After falling to New Zealand by 78 runs, hosts Pakistan bounced back by making lightwork of South Africa’s 352-run total in Karachi. Winning the match by six wickets with an over to spare, the ‘Men in Green’ qualified for the final by finishing second on the points table. Captain Mohammad Rizwan and all-rounder Agha Salman both belted majestic centuries in a winning cause in the match just a couple of days after New Zealand drubbing. Bowling seems to be a primary area of concern for the Pakistan team, considering even their leading wicket-taker Shaheen Afridi has taken his five wickets at an expensive average and an expensive economy rate.
