NZ vs PAK 5th ODI Dream11 Team Prediction: Preview

Welcome to our Preview for NZ vs PAK 5th ODI. The match will be played at the Basin Reserve, Wellington and This is our Dream11 probable playing XI for Pakistan vs New Zealand 5th ODI.

New Zealand already has the ODI series in the pocket with the scoreline standing at 4-0. Their wins in this series have highlighted the good form they are in as a team and not dependent on a solo performer. Knowing New Zealand they will fight hard even in this last match and try to take the series 5-0 rather than sit back and play easy.

Pakistan came closest to a win in the fourth ODI. They had a strong grip on the game when got Williamson out in the chase of 263. It was a spectacle to see Colin De Grandhomme bat that day, he was unstoppable, cruising to a super quick 74 off only 40 balls. To worsen the woes, Pakistan lost Shoaib Malik to an injury. This is the last chance of redemption for CT 2017 Winners.
