This tournament between New Zealand and Pakistan has been a very interesting one. Pakistan’s young blood team performed beyond expectations and claimed both the ODI and T20i series. Now its time for the final test series of the tournament.
The first test match between Pakistan and New Zealand was a wake up call for the Pakistani squad as the Kiwis outperformed them and won the First Bout of the Three-Match Test Series by four runs at Abu Dhabi.
Pakistan’s team was not prepared to let the Kiwi Squad take over so easily. The Pakistani squad bounced back in the 2nd Test of of the Series and took the win by an innings and 6 runs at Dubai on Tuesday.
This makes the 3rd and Final Test of the Three-Match Series between PAK and NZ even more interesting. Both New Zealand and Pakistan will be bringing their best game to the pavilion. The 3rd Test between NZ and Pak will decide the Series Winner.
