Pakistan will warm up for the T20 World Cup 2024 with a five-match T20I series against New Zealand, starting with the first few matches at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium in Rawalpindi followed by two games at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore.
Pakistan has named a full strength squad that will be led by Babar Azam and also welcomes the return of Mohammad Amir and Imad Wasim, who both made a retirement u-turn last month. The visitors, meanwhile, have sent a second string side with the regulars involved in IPL.

This will be New Zealand's third visit to Pakistan in the last 17 months, the first of which occurred in December 2022 to January 2023 for two Tests and three ODIs and then again in April 2023 for a white-ball tour. The Test series finished as a 0-0 draw, while New Zealand won the ODI series 2-1.
While in April later that year, the five-match T20I series ended in a 2-2 draw and Pakistan dominated the visitors in ODIs, claiming the series 4-1. Earlier this year, Pakistan visited New Zealand and suffered a 4-1 defeat in T20Is.
