Pakistan aims to break the cycle with a comforting victory.

Pakistan’s post-World Cup reset hasn’t quite gone as planned thus far. They were defeated 3-0 in the Test series in Australia under Shan Masood. Two games remaining in the T20I series in New Zealand. They have also been beaten under Shaheen Afridi. They have now lost six straight games away from home. Which is by no means ideal.

When it comes to major overhauls, however, patience is the key. With the World Cup in a few months, Pakistan would want to maintain the adjustments they have made and give players more chances. They would frantically try to get one victory in the near future to stop the bleeding and terminate this futile streak.

To halt the run flow, the bowling assault will undoubtedly be the main focus. In two games, they have given up more than 200 runs, and in the other, nearly 200. It’s not ideal for an attack that claims the likes of Haris Rauf and Shaheen. Saim Ayub and Mohammad Rizwan, who showed potential in the first game. Haven’t been able to deliver in the batting area. After dropping down to No. 3, Babar Azam has scored three straight fifties. But the visitors still need runs from players like Iftikhar Ahmed and Azam Khan.

New Zealanders will be quite happy that they didn’t really notice Kane Williamson’s absence. Devon Conway hasn’t looked at his most smooth yet, and Adam Milne has been pricey in the two games that he has played thus far. To keep their fast bowlers fresh. They may keep rotating them like they have been doing thus far.
