The third match of the three-match ODI series between New Zealand and Pakistan is set to be played at Bay Oval, Mount Maunganui, on April 5. The Men in Green have already lost the series after losing the first two matches. However, they will look to save their pride by winning the dead rubber.
New Zealand have dominated Pakistan in both the batting and bowling departments. There are lot of Kiwi batters who have performed well in the series so far and will look to finish the series on a high note. That said, let’s take a look at the three batters who can perform well in the third ODI.
Here are the predicted top 3 batters from New Zealand vs Pakistan 3rd ODI:
3. Mitchell Hay

New Zealand’s star wicketkeeper-batter, Mitchell Hay, played a magnificent unbeaten 97-run knock in the 2nd ODI. Kiwis’ top order provided a decent start to the team, but no batter could convert the start into a big score. However, it was Hay who steadied the ship and helped the team to put up a good total on the scoreboard. Hay provides a great depth in the batting lineup down the order.
2. Babar Azam

Former RCB skipper Babar Azam has been one of the most consistent batters in the ODI format currently. He may not have gotten a big score for a while now but he has been getting a great start in almost all the matches. Babar scored 78 runs in the first ODI but departed after scoring just one run in the second match. He would like to end the series with a great knock to his name.
1. Daryl Mitchell

New Zealand’s most experienced player in the squad, Daryl Mitchell, has the Kiwis’ batting lineup very well in the series so far. The right-handed batter smashed a brilliant half-century in the first ODI while scored 18 runs in the second match. He will be one of the threats to the Pakistani bowlers in the third ODI.
