Who Will Win New Zealand vs Pakistan, 4th ODI?
With the bad luck of the weather and disappointing performances by Pakistani squad that has managed to lose last 3 matches against the home team, New Zealand's odds are relatively high. Though weather in itself is a big player in the 4th ODI. With the series being won by the home-team, Pakistan has nothing to lose much and thus could hit back with a surprising gameplay.
New Zealand Team News & Playing 11
New Zealand's moral is high for many reasons and players like Williamson, Trent, Taylor and Martin are few of them. The last match's half centuries by Williamson and Taylor if repeated could lead to a destruction of the opponent.
Guptill is the missile Pakistan would have to worry about. His performance in 2nd ODI with a spree of sixes is till fresh on everyone's mind. He was match winner and could very well do the same again.
New Zealand Predicted Playing 11

Ross Taylor, Tim Southee, Martin Guptill, Kane Williamson (c), Colin Munro, Trent Boult, Tom Latham (wk), Todd Astle, Mitchell Santner, Lockie Ferguson, Henry Nicholls
Pakistan Team News & Playing 11
Pakistan would be doing some urgent and immediate changes in their line up post return of Fakhar Zaman and addition of Imam ul Haq, entry of Haris Sohail is expected to relive some pressure on the guest team that has had a tough time delivering anything of significance with the struggling squad. Captain Sarfraz Ahmed would not only have to win the toss but would also need his top batsmen to hold on to their turf for as long as they can, with the pitch being more favorable to team winning the toss due to threat of rain. Shoib Malik would have to avoid shots that could lead to another early catch-out dismissal. Babar Azam would be working to avoid anymore run-out dismissal.
Apart from unnecessary dismissal, the biggest struggle would be for Pakistan squad to fight against dot balls if they wish to avoid reenaction of the 74 all out failure of 3rd ODI.

Shoaib Malik, Mohammad Hafeez, Sarfraz Ahmed (c & wk), Mohammad Amir, Azhar Ali, Babar Azam, Rumman Raees, Fakhar Zaman, Shadab Khan, Faheem Ashraf, Hasan Ali
