Pakistan seems to be in very good shape after winning the 1st ODI of the 3-ODI series against the New Zealand. Pakistan team have some good performers but they are not able to convert them to big wins. They have not won a test series since 3-yeras and even the ODI series as well. So this is the opportunity for them to show their potential and win the series by a 3-0. Bowlers are doing a great job, fielding also not to messy, batsman are performing well so a complete team is in shape to deliver their best. Shahid Afridi seems to be in his best forms these days and is delivering in every match.

New Zealand is a good side with some good bowling and batting attack. They were in the last game till the last 15 overs, which were a big disaster for them. In the last 15 overs they gave so much runs which took the game away for them. Their batting has been a issues for long, they are not very consistent right from the early start of India tour to New Zealand series. Brendon McCullim is not performing and that is big problem for the team. he is great performer and need to get his form back.

Teams
New Zealand (probable): Aaron Redmond, Brendon McCullum (wk), Martin Guptill, Ross Taylor, Scott Styris, Daniel Vettori (capt), Jacob Oram/James Franklin, Neil McCullum, Shane Bond, Kyle Mills, Tim Southee

Pakistan (probable): Salman Butt, Khalid Latif, Younis Khan (capt), Mohammad Yousuf, Umar Akmal, Shahid Afridi, Kamran Akmal (wk), Abdul Razzaq, Umar Gul, Mohammad Aamer, Saeed Ajmal
