After suffering four consecutive defeats, Pakistan would like to end the series with a win. At the same time, New Zealand will be eyeing a clean sweep against Pakistan. NZ vs Pak fifth T20 will also be a chance for Pakistan’s newly appointed captain, Shaheen Afridi, to show some potential.

Pakistan lost its first T20 to New Zealand by a huge margin of 46 runs. Secondly, they lost the second t20 by 21 runs. The third T20 was also embarrassing for Pakistan’s newly appointed captain, Shaheen, and they lost it by 45 runs. In the fourth T20, Pakistan again had to face defeat by seven wickets.
