New Zealand Eyes Series Win as Pakistan Fights to Stay Alive in 3rd T20I

With New Zealand leading 2-0, Pakistan faces a must-win match at Eden Park to remain in contention in the five-match series.

New Zealand leads the series 2-0 after dominant performances in the first two matches, including a record low score for Pakistan in the opener.
The third T20I at Eden Park in Auckland is critical for Pakistan to avoid losing the series outright.
New Zealand's opening pair, Tim Seifert and Finn Allen, have been instrumental in their team's success with strong starts in both games.
Pakistan's inexperienced batting lineup has struggled, but their bowling attack, led by Shaheen Afridi and Haris Rauf, remains a key strength.
Eden Park's reputation as a high-scoring venue under lights adds intrigue to the match, with both teams aiming to capitalize on its tight dimensions.
