It will be the first time Babar has played an international T20 match on New Zealand soil since the start of 2018 after the Pakistan captain missed the 2020/21 tour due to a thumb injury.
The tri-series will form an important part of Pakistan’s preparation for this year’s T20 World Cup and Babar is hoping to quickly adapt to the conditions.
