After the two Tests were drawn, both Pakistan and New Zealand hope to register their first win when they take on each other in the 1st ODI of the three-match series. New Zealand came close to winning the final Test in Karachi to pile more woes on the Pakistan team in red-ball cricket, but a defiant Naseem Shah and Abrar Ahmed ensured that the spoils were shared. With this being a World Cup year, both teams will use this series to try and narrow down on a winning combination. Pakistan will play an ODI after a long time, with their last appearance in the format being against the Netherlands on August 22 last year. PAK vs NZ Dream11 Team Prediction, 1st ODI 2022: Tips To Pick Best Fantasy Playing XI for Pakistan vs New Zealand Cricket Match in Karachi.
