The New Zealand T20I tri-series will kickstart on Friday (October 7) with the first match between Bangladesh and Pakistan at Hagley Oval in Christchurch. Babar Azam will be leading Pakistan in the tri-series. Pakistan are coming into the series after 4-3 loss vs England at home in a bilateral series. All eyes will be on Pakistan's middle order which has not showed a lot of promise in the recent past. Openers Babar and Mohammad Rizwan will play a big role knowing these are different conditions than Pakistan. Both these star Pakistan batters have also been slammed earlier for their low strike rates. It would be interesting to see how they go.
