PAK vs NZ Dream11 prediction: 3 players you could pick as captain or vice-captain for today’s Pakistan vs New Zealand 3rd ODI – May 3rd, 2023  

Pakistan (PAK) and New Zealand (NZ) will lock horns in the third game of the five-match series on Wednesday, May 3. The National Stadium in Karachi will host the contest.

Pakistan are currently leading the series 2-0 and will have a chance of winning it if they secure victory in their next match. The hosts registered their second-highest successful run chase in ODIs last time around and will be high on confidence. The Kiwis are now in a must-win position and don’t have room for complacency.

On that note, here are three players whom you could pick as captain or vice captain for your Dream11 team for the PAK vs NZ game:
