Pakistan cricket is going through a challenging phase after a winless exit from the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Their struggles continued in New Zealand, where they lost two matches in the ongoing ODI series under Mohammad Rizwan’s captaincy. Pakistan have been completely outplayed in the ODI series.
Before the ODIs, Pakistan endured a disappointing five-match T20I series loss against the Kiwis. The revamped T20 squad managed just one win, suffering a 1-4 defeat. The third and final ODI between Pakistan and New Zealand is set to take place on April 5 at Bay Oval in Mount Maunganui, New Zealand.
