PAK vs NZ: Bowling in focus for New Zealand as they aim to pull things back against resurgent Pakistan
Two wins for Pakistan and both wins have come while chasing targets. In the second ODI, the Babar Azam-led chased 336 with seven wickets and two overs to spare. Fakhar Zaman has been in exceptional so far notching up two centuries. The southpaw has been well supported by Azam and Imam Ul Haq.
New Zealand batters have looked good, but it is the bowling that has lacked some bite. With Boult, Santner, and Southee missing, New Zealand bowling looks inexperienced.
Barring Matt Henry, the rest of the bowlers have not posed any threat to Pakistan’s batting unit. A better bowling performance is what the Kiwis would be aiming for in the third ODI.
