Lahore: The 3rd T-20 of five-match series between Pakistan and New Zealand will be played in Lahore on Monday.
The match will start at nine tonight while Pakistan lead the series 2-0.
Pakistan pocketed back-to-back wins over New Zealand with a 88- and 38-run victory over the tourists in the first and second T20Is.
New Zealand still have a chance to save this series but for that, they need to win all the remaining three T20 matches.
The Black Caps on both occasions failed to stop Pakistan from scoring runs
The toss can play an important role in the decision of this match. As has been seen in the recent past, the team winning the toss at the venue has come out batting first and successfully defended the score.
