Pakistan vs New Zealand 1st test

Pakistan playing 11: Pakistan have lost their last 4 tests that they have played in Pakistan that includes series defeats to Australia and England. They are in dire state with respect to test and they are in a transition phase but the cricket they are playing is quite bad to say the least. They are suffering without their lead pacer in Shaheen Afridi but even with him, they lack the bowling attack that could take 20 opposition wickets. They don’t seem to have a thing called home advantage either. They would have to put up a miraculous performance to win against the kiwis who are mediocre themselves.

  • It is expected that one of Kamran Ghulam or Shan Masood will bat at #3 in the game.
  • Abrar Ahmed will lead the spin attack.
  • The second spinner could be a toss up between Mohammad Nawaz and Nauman Ali. Although Mohammad Nawaz is more of a batting all rounder, Nauman Ali didn’t inspire confidence against England.
  • Hasan Ali and Naseem Shah are expected to lead the pace attack.
