Pakistan would seek a fresh start when they take on New Zealand in a five-match T20I series. Pakistan had a poor outing in the ICC Champions Trophy and suffered a group-stage exit after losing to India and New Zealand. With T20 World Cup lined up next year, Pakistan will be looking to use the bilateral series as a preparation for the showpiece event. Pakistan made some bold moves for the T20I series and dropped Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan from the T20I squad. Salman Ali Agha was named the captain of the side while Shadab Khan returned as the team's vice-captain.

Meanwhile, New Zealand have named a second-string team for the series with IPL-bound players not available. The Kiwis will be led by Michael Bracewell.
