NZ vs PAK Key Players

Glenn Phillips

Glenn Phillips is in the middle of a really good period in his career. As a batter, he has shown flair and flexibility and with the ball, he is chipping in pretty well. He is one of the best players going around and could have fun with the small boundaries at Auckland.

Aamer Jamal

Aamer Jamal is likely to come in full of confidence after being one of the lone warriors in the 3rd Test against Australia. It is a different format though now but his confidence could carry him forward in the upcoming game.
