HAMILTON: Pakistan has won the toss and decided to bowl first in the 2nd T20I against New Zealand at Seddon Park in Hamilton.

Pakistan is playing against New Zealand with the same playing XI in the 2nd Twenty20 International (T20I) today at Seddon Park in Hamilton.

Pakistan kicked off their visit on a downbeat note, suffering a 46-run defeat in the series first match against the hosts.

Pakistan’s playing XI:

Mohammad Rizwan, Saim Ayub, Fakhar Zaman, Babar Azam, Azam Khan (WK), Iftikhar Ahmed, Haris Rauf, Shaheen Afridi (C), Aamir Jamal, Abbas Afridi, Usama Mir.

In the first match, New Zealand won by 46 runs against Pakistan in Auckland, on Friday. Despite a stunning start provided by Saim Ayub’s astonishing knock as the left-handed batter scored 27 off just 8 balls, the Green Shirts crumbled in their chase and could not convert that into a good win.
