The five-match T20I series will start on March 16 in Christchurch.
Following a disastrous Champions Trophy 2025 campaign, Pakistan are set to take on the runners-up New Zealand. The two sides will clash in a five-match T20I series starting on March 16.
Both teams are currently in contrasting positions. Pakistan, the host of the Champions Trophy, made a group-stage exit in the tournament without a win. The side’s new T20I skipper, Salman Agha, believes that they have some quality players who portray a high brand of cricket in domestic matches.
On the other hand, New Zealand are coming off a near-perfect Champions Trophy campaign. The Blackcaps only lost two matches, both against India, during the group stage and in the final. However, the squad will miss some of their key players who will be engaged with the Indian Premier League (IPL).
Pakistan: Salman Ali Agha (C), Shadab Khan (vice-captain), Abdul Samad, Abrar Ahmed, Haris Rauf, Hasan Nawaz, Jahandad Khan, Khushdil Shah, Mohammad Abbas Afridi, Mohammad Ali, Mohammad Haris, Muhammad Irfan Khan, Omair Bin Yousaf, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Sufyan Moqim and Usman Khan.
New Zealand: Michael Bracewell (C), Finn Allen, Mark Chapman, Jacob Duffy, Zak Foulkes (matches 4-5), Mitch Hay, Matt Henry (matches 4-5), Kyle Jamieson (matches 1-3), Daryl Mitchell, Jimmy Neesham, Will O’Rourke (matches 1-3), Tim Robinson, Ben Sears, Tim Seifert, Ish Sodhi.
