NZ vs PAK Match Prediction & Analysis
It was a crushing win for New Zealand over Pakistan on Sunday in the first of five T20Is with the Black Caps getting over the line with nine wickets in the bank and with 59 balls remaining!
Many pundits and commentators expected New Zealand to be the stronger side but few had predicted a victory by such a large margin and pressure is very much on Pakistan ahead of this second match.
Lose this game and the series looks as good as over, but if they win it then suddenly the series is all square again!
Pakistan do not have their strongest batting line-up so their bowlers must perform to a high level or else this match and this series could be one to forget for the tourists.

TEAMS PREVIEW
New Zealand Preview
Make no mistake about it, this team is not the strongest T20I side which New Zealand would put out if this was a T20 World Cup. But the truth is that the Black Caps have strength in depth across all positions and they are one of the best all-format teams in world cricket!
Ahead of this second game of the series, Tim Seifert will fancy his chances of making another decent score after he made 44 runs from 29 balls on Sunday. Alongside him at the top of the order, we expect Finn Allen - who hit 137 runs from 62 balls in the last T20I here - to continue to play in his aggressive style, with Tim Robinson and Daryl Mitchell waiting in the wings of a very strong top four.
With the ball, there may be no Tim Southee, Trent Boult or Matt Henry, but in Kyle Jamieson and Jacob Duffy, New Zealand have two pace bowlers who are just as strong as the other three on their day. Jamieson will be looking to maintain his economy rate of 2.00 from Christchurch when this game gets underway.
New Zealand Predicted Playing XI:
Tim Seifert, Finn Allen, Tim Robinson, Mark Chapman, Daryl Mitchell, Mitchell Hay (wk), Michael Bracewell (c), Zakary Foulkers, Kyle Jamieson, Ish Sodhi, Jacob Duffy

Pakistan Preview
Not for the first time in a recent international fixture against New Zealand, Pakistan found themselves chasing the game from early on and were never able to recover on Sunday. Therefore, they must be on their game from the first ball when this match gets underway on Tuesday in Dunedin.
With ducks for both openers, and four more runs across Irfan Khan and Shadab Khan combined in the top five, it's clear where the batting needs to improve. Captain Salman Agha is a very reliable player across all formats but he will need the likes of Mohammad Haris and Shadab Khan to back him up in this clash.
With the ball, Abrar Ahmed was the only player in green to pick up a wicket in the opening game of the series but the likes of Shaheen Shah Afridi should be able to exploit the conditions in the second T20I.
Pakistan Predicted Playing XI:
Mohammad Haris (wk), Hasan Nawaz, Salman Agha (c), Irfan Khan, Shadab Khan, Khushdil Shah, Abdul Samad, Jahandad Khan, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Abrar Ahmed, Mohammad Ali

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS
Weather Conditions
The forecast looks pretty awful for Dunedin at the moment. Not only is persistent rain on the radar, but the temperature is no higher than 12 degrees all day so any potential drying up will take a long while.
NZ vs PAK Pitch Report
This is a good batting wicket, as seen by New Zealand smashing 224/7 when they last played Pakistan at this venue! Whoever bats first will need to post 185+ to be competitive.
Toss: To Bat
There have been three previous T20Is at the University Oval in Dunedin with two of them won by the team batting first. Therefore, we predict that both sides will choose to bat first should they win the toss.
NZ vs PAK
Winning Prediction
Many cricket fans talk about Pakistan being brilliant one game and awful the next but at the moment they appear to be consistently poor! As a result, and with New Zealand on form, we are backing the hosts to get another victory to go 2-0 up.
