| Pak vs NZ T20 Series |
Five T20 international matches between Pakistan and New Zealand's cricket teams will take place in the upcoming month of April 2023. Both the national cricket associations of Pakistan and New Zealand have already confirmed and made public the time for the T20 series in 2023. The Pakistan vs. New Zealand T20 series in 2023 will consist of 5 T20 games and get underway on April 13 and end on April 23.
Karachi will host the first four Twenty20 internationals, while Lahore will host the final Twenty20. On April 13, 2023, at Karachi's National Stadium, the first T20 international will kick off the tournament. The second, third, and fourth Twenty20 matches will take place on April 15, 16, and 19 at the same stadium in Karachi, while the fifth game of the series will be played on April 23, 2023, at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore.
In contrast, New Zealand will visit Pakistan in 2023 for the T20 Series between Pakistan and New Zealand, with Kane Williamson serving as captain. Babar Azam will captain the Pakistan team, with Saqlain Mushtaq serving as head coach. With 81 T20 matches under his belt, the Black Caps captain has a tonne of experience in the shortest format of the game. With 15 half-centuries, Williamson has already scored 2,225 runs in T20I.
Babar Azam, on the other hand, has participated in 89 T20 matches and scored 3140 runs, including 2 centuries and 28 half-centuries. The two most effective batters for the Pakistani team are Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan, who are ranked third and first, respectively, in the ICC T20 player rankings. So, stopping these two batters would not be a simple task for a New Zealand player.
In the current ICC T20 Team rankings, Pakistan is currently in third place and New Zealand is in fifth place. There have been 25 T20 international matches between Pakistan and New Zealand, with 10 of those games ending in New Zealand victories and 15 ending in losses. As of September 2022, New Zealand had played in 175 T20 Internationals, winning 90 and losing 73. Pakistan, on the other hand, has played 208 T20 Internationals, winning 127 of them while losing the remaining 73. Therefore, it would be fascinating to see how New Zealanders played on a Pakistani pitch.
