Pakistan
New Zealand would have taken a knock from their nine-wicket loss in the previous game. They will want to correct their wrongs of that game. They are still a dangerous side who could seal the T20I series with a win in this game.
Pakistan was far from their best in the opening two games. They lifted their level to claim their first win of the T20I series in the third T20I. With new-found confidence, they will be hoping to make it back-to-back wins.
This game will also be a potentially series-defining match. A win for New Zealand gives them the T20I series. A win for Pakistan will keep their hopes up as the T20I series would then be level with one game in hand.

Both squads are currently fully fit heading into the penultimate game.
The weather conditions will be moderate with the biggest factor of the day being the extreme humidity. The chance of rain is only in the single digits. This will again be a pacer’s wicket with the last ten matches at the ground featuring 74 pace wickets compared to 45 spin wickets.
Mohammad Haris would have put himself in strong contention to be picked here after his blistering knock in the opening partnership of the previous T20I. Mitchell Hay features lower in the order compared to Haris. Hay will be tidy behind the stumps, but Haris is likely to earn you more points for batting.
Despite only making a start in his previous innings, Tim Seifert will be a hot pick to strike another important innings. Finn Allen is a good enough player to bounce back too. Mark Chapman’s class could be worth taking a punt on. He has been a long-standing contributor for the New Zealanders. Hasan Nawaz and his current ball-striking should also be considered.
Salman Agha should be favoured because of his consistency across three games. The Pakistani captain is a must-have in your lineup. Local players James Neesham and Michael Bracewell could be two experienced campaigners that will get you fantasy points. They have won games with bat and ball in the past.
The two standout fast bowlers across both camps have been Jacob Duffy with his movement off the pitch and Haris Rauf with lightning pace. Both have been economical to back up their wickets. Kyle Jamieson had a superb start to the series with three for eight in his first game of the series. He followed up with a disappointing second effort. His experience is still worth having in your side though.
Salman Agha can contribute with bat, ball and in the field as captain. He has been one of the few Pakistani players to cause the home side headaches. The team will want another captain’s innings from him.
Because of his performance with the bat in the previous T20I, you may want to bank on Mark Chapman performing well again. He was close to a century in his previous T20I innings. The left-hander is both stylish and smart in the middle overs.
In the bowling, the pacers are still likely to be a key choice on the New Zealand pitches. The Pakistani pacers showed their worth in the previous game. It may be worthwhile sizing up your pace options across both sides.
Salman Agha has been consistent with the bat. He has been without help from many others before the third T20I where Mohammad Haris chipped in and Hasan Nawaz obliterated the opposition. The New Zealand opening pair and Mark Chapman could be decent picks from the Black Caps.
Jacob Duffy and Tim Seifert lead the pack with 238 Dream11 fantasy points this series. Agha Salman follows them with 235 Dream11 fantasy points of his own.
Agha Salman now leads the run-scoring charts this series with 115 runs across three innings.
Jacob Duffy has been a non-stop threat with the swinging new ball. He has seven wickets in three T20Is this series.
Tim Seifert is in the lead by one six. He has eight sixes in total this series. Both Finn Allen and Hasan Nawaz are on seven sixes each.
Hasan Nawaz did a lot of good work to get his strike rate up after his century in the previous game. He has a batting strike rate of 210 in this T20I series at the moment.
Haris Rauf has been the most economical of the lot, going at sevens. Both Jacob Duffy and Kyle Jamieson also have economies between seven and eight for the series.
