NZW vs PAKW Match Prediction & Analysis

Host New Zealand women will be keen to salvage some pride when they take on Pakistan women in the third and final game of the T20I series at John Davies Oval in Queenstown.

After losing the first two matches of the series, New Zealand women will be desperate to earn a consolation win and get necessary confidence ahead of the three-match ODI series. Captain Sophie Devine will need to lead from the front with the bat and ball in this dead rubber.

On the other hand, Pakistan women managed to create history and became the first Asian side to beat New Zealand in the three-match T20I series. Captain Nida Dar will be hoping that the side can maintain their standards with bat and ball in the series finale.
