New Zealand vs Pakistan TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. NZ vs PAK Match Prediction & Analysis It was a crushing win for New Zealand over Pakistan on Sunday in the first of five T20Is with the Black Caps getting over the line with nine wickets in the bank and with 59 balls remaining! Many pundits and commentators expected New Zealand to be the stronger side but few had predicted a victory by such a large margin and pressure is very much on Pakistan ahead of this second match. Lose this game and the series looks as good as over, but if they win it then suddenly the series is all square again! Pakistan do not have their strongest batting line-up so their bowlers must perform to a high level or else this match and this series could be one to forget for the tourists. TEAMS PREVIEW New Zealand Preview Make no mistake about it, this team is not the strongest T20I side which New Zealand would put out if this was a T20 World Cup. But the truth is that the Black Caps have strength in depth across all positions and they are one of the best all-format teams in world cricket! Ahead of this second game of the series, Tim Seifert will fancy his chances of making another decent score after he made 44 runs from 29 balls on Sunday. Alongside him at the top of the order, we expect Finn Allen  – who hit 137 runs from 62 balls in the last T20I here – to continue to play in his aggressive style, with Tim Robinson and Daryl Mitchell waiting in the wings of a very strong top four. With the ball, there may be no Tim Southee, Trent Boult or Matt Henry, but in Kyle Jamieson and Jacob Duffy, New Zealand have two pace bowlers who are just as strong as the other three on their day. Jamieson will be looking to maintain his economy rate of 2.00 from Christchurch when this game gets underway. Pakistan Preview Not for the first time in a recent international fixture against New Zealand, Pakistan found themselves chasing the game from early on and were never able to recover on Sunday. Therefore, they must be on their game from the first ball when this match gets underway on Tuesday in Dunedin. With ducks for both openers, and four more runs across Irfan Khan and Shadab Khan combined in the top five, it’s clear where the batting needs to improve. Captain Salman Agha is a very reliable player across all formats but he will need the likes of Mohammad Haris and Shadab Khan to back him up in this clash. With the ball, Abrar Ahmed was the only player in green to pick up a wicket in the opening game of the series but the likes of Shaheen Shah Afridi should be able to exploit the conditions in the second T20I. Weather Conditions The forecast looks pretty awful for Dunedin at the moment. Not only is persistent rain on the radar, but the temperature is no higher than 12 degrees all day so any potential drying up will take a long while. NZ vs PAK Pitch Report This is a good batting wicket, as seen by New Zealand smashing 224/7 when they last played Pakistan at this venue! Whoever bats first will need to post 185+ to be competitive. Toss: To Bat There have been three previous T20Is at the University Oval in Dunedin with two of them won by the team batting first. Therefore, we predict that both sides will choose to bat first should they win the toss.

πŒπ€π“π‚π‡ :Β Australia Women vs England Women 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : Β January 23 ,Thursdayβ€‹β€‹π“πˆπŒπ„ :​ 13:45 PM IST​​​​​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Manuka Oval, Griffith, Australia π“πŽπ”π‘ππ€πŒπ„ππ“ : 2nd T20I 2025 The Women’s Ashes moves to the Manuka Oval, Canberra for the second WT20I with Australia Women already guaranteed to retain the Ashes. Australia Women vs England Women TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. AUSW vs ENGW Match Prediction & Analysis It has been a familiar narrative across this multi-format series with Australia Women winning all four of the games (3x WODIs and 1x T20Is) and England Women unable to turn some positive positions into unassailable ones. In the last WT20I, Australia Women looked in command throughout, not losing their first wicket until 114 runs were on the board and then adding another 15 runs from the final over. And as soon as they had dismissed both England Women’s openers for ducks, the writing was very much on the wall. TEAMS PREVIEW Australia Preview After injuries ruled out captain Alyssa Healy and Ashleigh Gardner from the opening WT20I, Georgia Voll and Grace Harris proved themselves to be decent enough understudies and both made contributions to the win in Sydney. There is no guarantee that either Healy or Gardner will be seen again across this multi-format series but Australia Women are never afraid to back replacements and in Voll and Harris they have two very accomplished players. England Preview The knives have been out for this England Women’s side after they gave up the opportunity of wrestling back the Women’s Ashes by losing the last match. They do still have the opportunity to draw the series, if they can win each of the remaining WT20Is and the Women’s Test. But the problem for England Women is that the team they put out for the opening WT20I was their strongest available and even if there is a clamour for changes with one final throw of the dice, it will only weaken the side. In reality, it is highly unlikely that both openers will make ducks again and that should give the squad plenty of confidence, not that Sophia Dunkley needs any more after she hit a brilliant 59 runs from 30 balls in Sydney! Furthermore, skipper Heather Knight hit 168 not out in a Women’s Test here in 2022. Weather Conditions The game is likely to begin under floodlights with cloudy skies and a small chance of rain. The temperature will be at 24 degrees to kick things off but will drop to the high teens by the close. AUSW vs ENGW Pitch Report This is not the fastest wicket in Australia and the batters often have to manoeuvre and work the ball to score runs as opposed to thrashing it to the fence. A total of 165 is likely to be plenty in the first innings. Toss: To Bowl When the last WT20I took place here, in January 2024, South Africa Women shocked the cricketing world by beating Australia Women by six wickets. It proved to be a fore-runner of the Women’s T20 World Cup semi-final and so we predict that both sides will want to bowl first ahead of this game.
