New Zealand would be aiming to end their home season on the ultimate high by winning the second Test against Pakistan at the Hagley Oval in Christchurch and ensuring that they stay alive in the race for the final of the ICC World Test Championship that will take place in June 2021 at Lord’s. Kane Williamson’s team has won five consecutive Tests at home and they are also the No.1 ranked side in the world in Tests for the first time in their history. The 101-run win at the Bay Oval has put New Zealand in command and they are looking good to win their third consecutive Test series against Pakistan, having won in 2016 and in 2019 in the UAE.
Kane Williamson has been in fine form for New Zealand, having blasted a double century in the Test match against West Indies and also hitting his 23rd century when he hit 129 at the Bay Oval Test against Pakistan. Kane Williamson is also the No.1 batsman in Tests and he will once again be looking to lead from the front. For Pakistan, Fawad Alam was the star having scored a century after 11 years while skipper Mohammad Rizwan has been solid with the bat, scoring his fourth consecutive fifty. However, the lack of support for the batsmen as well as no back-up for the exploits of Shaheen Afridi with the ball have hurt Pakistan and they would be clinging on to their slim chance of qualification for the final with a win in Christchurch.
