Match Details:

Match:PAK vs NZ – 2nd T20
Date:Apr 15, Sat, 2023
Time:04:00 PM (GMT)
Venue:Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore
Toss:Pakistan, Bat 1st

Pitch Report: The wicket at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore is a batting-friendly surface in recent times. The pacers are likely to get some help with the new ball, but otherwise, the batters will look to make the most of the conditions and get the big runs. A competitive high-scoring game can be expected, and either skipper winning the toss will likely bat first.

Babar Azam: I am very happy with my performance in this match. There was a bit of help for the fast bowlers early on but Rizwan and myself saw that period through, built a partnership and then Iftikhar and myself finished it off. We utilized the last five overs and got to a very good total. Losing wickets back to back is a concern and we will discuss these things, it does put pressure on the batters when you lose wickets in clusters. We have very good fast bowlers and they performed brilliantly. He (Rizwan) is feeling better and there’s a rest day tomorrow, let’s see how he pulls up.

Tom Latham: We have been there or thereabouts but we weren’t able to finish the innings off, both with the ball and bat. But when Babar plays like that, you tip your hat off. The bowlers are trying hard and we are not that far away, if we can put the pieces together then we have a good chance. We were a lot better than last night, we couldn’t get off to the fast start and they bowled well in the middle overs. You need to get off to a quick start while chasing 190 and we weren’t able to do that today. It is a game of fine margins and can be fickle, we will take the learnings from the last two nights and come back stronger on Monday.
