Pakistan will get their best game out today and try to take an unassailable lead in the series at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.
Pakistan will clash with New Zealand in the 4th match of the series and it will be played at the Rawalpindi Stadium. After Pakistan won the first two T20Is, New Zealand bounced back well and won the third encounter. Babar Azam returned to the team with a brilliant hundred in the 2nd match of the series, the other batters have also looked in fantastic touch. Looking at the bowling, the likes of Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf and Shadab Khan have done exceedingly well for Pakistan. Zaman Khan has been terrific with the new ball and the New Zealand batters have found it challenging to pick his slingy action.
On the other hand, New Zealand is coming into this series with a young team, as some of their players are in India, participating in the Indian Premier League. There are missing plenty of their superstars and it will be Tom Latham leading them and he has done it well so far, he won the match of the match in the third 3rd T20I. Daryl Mitchell and James Neesham will need to stand up and deliver in another do-or-die game for New Zealand. Pakistan will get their best game out today and try to take an unassailable lead in the series. There will be a change in the venue and it will be interesting to see how the pitch play in Rawalpindi.

The Pitch at the Pindi Club Stadium has been a belter over the years, the ball comes onto the bat very well and the batters enjoy batting at this venue. Stadium has a 170-run average score for the side batting first. However, in the 2023 season of the PSL, this venue has produced plenty of high-scoring contests. The weather continues to be warm and dry in Pindi. The captain who wins the toss will look to chase the total down in the 2nd innings.
