In this match, New Zealand won the toss and decided to bowl first.
Currently, the fourth match of the five-match T20 series between New Zealand and Pakistan is being played at Hagley Oval, Christchurch. In this match, New Zealand won the toss and decided to bowl first. For the first time in this T20 series, Pakistan has come out to bat first.
Some changes have been made in both the teams. Devon Conway and Ish Sodhi are not playing for the New Zealand team in the fourth T20. Devon Conway’s Covid report has come positive and that is why he has not been included in the playing XI in the fourth T20 being played against Pakistan. New Zealand Cricket itself has confirmed that Devon Conway’s Covid report has come positive and that is why he has been kept in isolation in the team hotel in Christchurch.
Devon Conway’s performance has not been so good so far in this T20 series. He has scored 27 runs in three innings so far. Will Young has been included in the team for the fourth T20 in place of Devon Conway. Apart from Devon Conway, experienced spinner Ish Sodhi has been rested in this match and fast bowler Adam Milne is playing in his place.

Young wicketkeeper batsman Azam Khan is not playing in this match and Sahibzada Farhan has been included in the team in his place. Let us tell you, Azam Khan has performed very disappointingly so far and has scored only 22 runs.
