Topmost Picks for NZ vs PAK Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – New Zealand

• Finn Allen- the leading run scorer in the series is averaging 63.25 from his four innings and has taken the Player of the Match Award from two of the games.
• Ben Sears- the 25 year old right-arm medium fast bowler looks set to have a long T20I career ahead of himself and he has taken a two-wicket haul in each of his last three games in this format.

Top Picks – Pakistan

• Babar Azam- the former skipper has been Pakistan’s highest run scorer in three of the four matches in the series and he hit another three boundaries before being dismissed on Friday.
• Haris Rauf- the 30 year old right-arm fast bowler went wicketless for the first time in the series in the fourth game but still has a strike-rate of 16.2 in this format.

NZ vs PAK Probable Winners:

Although Pakistan did not allow Finn Allen to score many runs on Friday, New Zealand won comfortably thanks to some clean hitting from Daryl Mitchell and Glenn Phillips. That is the visitors’ problem, because whenever New Zealand needed someone to step up, they always found at least one player to do so. Pakistan has match-winners, but we haven’t seen enough of them perform consistently. We predict that New Zealand will win another game to seal the series victory. Considering the team combination, New Zealand is expected to win this match.
