Pakistan vs New Zealand Live Streaming ICC T20 World Cup 2021: When and where to watch PAK vs NZ in India
Zee News
On the T20I team rankings, there is little to separate the teams. Pakistan are placed third, while New Zealand are fourth. Pakistan hold a historical edge over New Zealand in the format, though, having won 14 and lost 10 contests between the sides.
The manner in which the Babar Azam-led Pakistan crushed India in their opening game of the ICC T20 World Cup 'Super 12' would have given the Kane Williamson-led New Zealand a fair idea about what to expect when the two sides meet at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium later on Tuesday.
The animosity created by the Black Caps' last-minute cancellation of the limited-overs series in Pakistan in September has been too hard to digest for Babar Azam's players, and even the new Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Ramiz Raja, besides several former cricketers, including Shoaib Akhtar among others, have asked the team to go all out and take "revenge".
To add to the "revenge factor", the manner of Pakistan's 10-wicket win over India will give the 2009 T20 World champions the confidence in their abilities as well as their plans for the rest of the tournament.
