NZ vs PAK Dream11 Top Fantasy Picks All Rounders, Batsman, Bowlers, Wicket Keepers

NZ vs PAK Dream11 Top Picks

Babar Azam

Babar has had a quiet tournament. He has just hit two fifties and is one of the main culprits of Pakistan’s poor show in the World Cup. However, Babar can redeem himself if he has a good game against New Zealand. He knows New Zealand bowlers fairly well and has a decent record against them.

Mohammad Rizwan

Mohammad Rizwan will be other key batter in the lineup. Rizwan started the World Cup with a bang but has run out of gas. Rizwan needs to come good at all cost if Pakistan have to stay alive in the tournament.

Shaheen Afridi

Afridi has been brilliant for Pakistan in the World Cup. The pacer has taken 16 wickets in 7 matches and will be eyeing another great show with the ball.

Rachin Ravindra

Rachin Ravindra has been a revelation for New Zealand. The all-rounder has scored a couple of centuries with the bat and has looked the most comfortable among all Kiwi batters. The youngster will be eyeing another impressive show with the bat.

Mitchell Santner

Bengaluru pitch might assist spinners so Santner can be handy. The spinner has been in great form in the tournament, taking 14 wickets in 7 games.
