Pakistan vs New Zealand Match Prediction

Pakistan might have lost their last two games, but they are still expected to win the fifth and final match to level the series 2-2. Pakistan have been struck by the injuries of Mohammad Rizwan and Irfan Khan, but they will be motivated enough to avoid a series defeat at home against a second-string New Zealand attack. Pakistan bowling unit is expected to rescue Pakistan.
