PAK vs NZ Preview
- In its last five home Test matches, Pakistan has suffered four losses and one tie.
- In the last four Test Matches, Pakistani bowlers have let up more than 400 runs three times.
- In the last 10 Test Matches between the two teams, New Zealand has defeated Pakistan seven times.
At National Stadium, Karachi, Pakistan will compete against New Zealand. On Monday, January 2, at 10:00 local time, the second of these two Tests begin.
When Pakistan plays New Zealand in the second Test Match in Karachi, they will look for their players’ positive performance. At home, the hosts are having trouble deciphering the code. They managed to escape the first Test Match with a draw against the Kiwis after suffering a devastating whitewash against England.
If poor lighting hadn’t stopped play, New Zealand would have won despite dominating the match.
PAK vs NZ Weather Report
During the game, Karachi will have clear blue skies.
PAK vs NZ Match Toss Prediction
We anticipate the team winning the toss will elect to bat first on this surface because it is difficult to bat here in the fourth innings.
PAK vs NZ Pitch Report
The pitch will be the same as what we saw in the previous game, with little room for the bowlers. Beginning on Day 3, the surface will offer help to spinners.
Pakistan Team News & Probable Playing XIs
Even if Babar Azam has been leading from the front, it hasn’t been sufficient. The last game ended in a stalemate, and the Pakistani captain made a strong statement, but New Zealand was still in control. The Pakistani captain wants his batsmen to be more reliable. The team must bowl better than we have seen over the past four weeks.

Pakistan’s Probable XI
Babar Azam (c), Sarfaraz Ahmed (wk), Imam-ul-Haq, Abdullah Shafique, Saud Shakeel, Shan Masood, Nauman Ali, Agha Salman, Abrar Ahmed, Mohammad Wasim Jr, Mir Hamza
New Zealand News & Probable Playing XIs
Tim Southee will be disappointed with the outcome of the last game. They had Pakistan struggling in the second innings, but they were unable to quickly get rid of the last several batsmen. The captain would be pleased with his team’s batting performance in the last match. Due to a string of setbacks for his opponents, Southee will try to go for the kill and win the series.

New Zealand is the favourite to win this match.
Prior to this encounter, Pakistan will be under pressure. They have lost four of their last seven home games and failed to pick up a victory in that span. They must take advantage of the circumstances, but we haven’t seen that in recent games from their bowlers. In the previous ten games against Pakistan, New Zealand has only lost twice. The New Zealanders will be the favourites in this match thanks to their strong batting. New Zealand will triumph.
