PAK vs NZ Dream11 Prediction: Final Pakistan vs New Zealand

55

This is PAK vs NZ Dream11 Prediction. It will be the Final match of the Tri-Series. Pakistan will take on New Zealand in the final ODI of the series. This match will be played at National Stadium in Karachi. The match will be played on 14th February 2025 at 2:30 PM IST. 

Both sides have met each other in 117 ODI matches to date. Pakistan have claimed 61 wins to New Zealand’s 52. New Zealand qualified to the Finals by winning both their matches against Pakistan and South Africa. They beat Pakistan by 78 runs in the opening match and then chased down 304 against South Africa in the second match. They look in tremendous form leading into this game. 

On the other hand, Pakistan had a disappointing start to the series losing the opener in Lahore. And in the next match against South Africa, they had a poor start and let South Africa scored 352 batting first. It was a mammoth total and required a record chase. Fakhar and Babar started well in the chase but they lost three wickets. It looked a really tough task at that point but Salman Agha and Rizwan formed a record partnership and both of them scored centuries as Pakistan chased down the target and made their way to the Final.

This is a crucial match between these two sides and these two sides will also play the opening match of the Champions Trophy.

Pakistan: Fakhar Zaman, Babar Azam, Saud Shakeel, Mohammad Rizwan(w/c), Salman Agha, Tayyab Tahir, Khushdil Shah, Shaheen Afridi, Mohammad Hasnain, Naseem Shah, Abrar Ahmed

PAK vs NZ Dream11 Prediction: Pitch Report

The pitch at the National Stadium in Karachi will be a balanced one with good help for spinners and there will be plenty of runs on offer with shorter boundaries. The outfield is lightning-quick. The average score in the last 5 years is 290. This pitch is so welcoming to the batters and at times offers something for the spinners. If there’s dew around, it might be hard work for the bowlers. The pitch is hard, there’s grass to help the ball slide onto the bat.

Fantasy Value from Pitch Report

• Try to fit in the top 4 batters from both teams.
• You can take the risk of dropping the fast bowlers from the team bowling first.
• Death bowlers from the first innings and batters will be good C/VC options.
