New Zealand vs Pakistan 2024 3rd T20I: Hosts New Zealand are a win away from winning their ongoing five-match T20I series against Pakistan. They though have been dealt a blow with skipper Kane Williamson ruled out of the remainder of the series because of a hamstring injury.
However, Williamson was anyway expected to skip the third T20I to be played in Dunedin with the South Africa Test series at home approaching. “With the Test matches so close as well and in the big scheme of things (they are) a higher priority I think we’ll try and make sure he’s right for that,” New Zealand coach Gary Stead said.
Tim Seifert is expected to replace Williamson in the playing XI.
Pakistan are now fighting to keep the series alive after losing the first two contests. Another defeat will extend their wait for a first T20I series win since 2022 and their batters will have to show improvement if they harbour hopes of a decider.
The contest will be played in Dunedin which has traditionally been batting friendly.

The contest will be played on January 17, 2024.
