PAK vs NZ 5th T20I: Pakistan look to salvage pride against assertive New Zealand
Pakistan and New Zealand are gearing up to face off in the fifth and final T20I match scheduled to be played on Saturday at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore. New Zealand are currently leading the series 2-1 after stunning Pakistan with a 4-run win in the fourth encounter. With New Zealand currently leading the series 2-1, the upcoming showdown holds huge importance for both teams.
The first encounter between them was unfortunately abandoned due to continuous rainfall.
