Who Will Win the 2nd T20I? Pakistan tour of New Zealand 2025
New Zealand will be fancying their chances of taking a 2-0 lead in the ongoing five-match T20I series when they lock horns against Pakistan in the second game. The match will be played on Tuesday (March 18) at the University Oval, Dunedin.
The Black Caps will be the favourites to win the upcoming contest as well after completely outplaying Pakistan in the first T20I. Bowling first, New Zealand bowled out Pakistan for a paltry total of 91 runs.
Player of the Match Kyle Jamieson picked up 3 wickets for just 8 runs while Jacob Duffy claimed 4 wickets for 14 runs. For Pakistan, only three batters managed to reach double-digit figures while only one of them touched the 20-run mark. Khushdil Shah (32) was the top scorer for the visitors.
In reply, New Zealand chased down the total inside 11 overs. Opener Tim Seifert gave the hosts a flying start by smashing 44 off 29 deliveries before Finn Allen and Tim Robinson took their team home thanks to an unbroken stand of 39.
With both the teams now gearing up for the second T20I, we are taking a look at all the major predictions for the match.
