- Pakistan vs New Zealand Live
Pakistan’s match with New Zealand will be a big challenge for the country that has earned enough points to be in quarter finals. A win or loss will be of little use to Pakistan. But still no country wants to be defeated in such a big tournament as it can knock down team’s morale.
Going by the track record Pakistan has an upper hand as it convincingly defeated New Zealand in the recently held series. However, the disadvantage with Pakistan is that they will be playing on a pitch that is fast a bit of bounce. Such conditions suit NZ players the most. It would be interesting to see whether NZ that has not been in good form be able to capitalize on it.
Pakistan bowlers, including captain Shahid Afridi, who are in good forms have a tough task at hands to restraint NZ batsmen on a bouncy pitch that would be a pleasure to bat at as the bowl would come to bat easily. With a strong batting line up in Brendon McCullum, Jesse Ryder and Ross Taylor, NZ has the potential to give Pakistan a headache.
The plus point with Pakistan is that it has a battery of pacers in Shoaib Akhtar, who is certainly going to replace Wahab Riaz on Tuesday. Besides, wily Umar Gul knows well how to extract extra fight. And Shahid Afridi, leading from the front it won’t be a cakewalk for the NZ batsmen. The match will be worth watching.
