Toss

Pakistan have won the toss and opted to bat. Good toss to win for the visitors as they can look to set a target this time around. Both teams make one change each. Colin de Grandhomme comes in for Todd Astle. Haris Sohail replaces Azhar Ali. Faheem Ashraf is expected to open the innings for Pakistan.

Build up

Pakistan were reduced to an ignominious 16 for 6 before they were snuffed out for 74 in the third ODI in Dunedin as they lost the five-match series to New Zealand 3-0. Can the beleaguered Asian country salvage some pride in the fourth game in Hamilton?

What about the home team? Kane Williamson, Martin Guptill and Ross Taylor have all in been in fine form and Trent Boult continues to pick up a slew of wickets. In their last game, he took 5 for 17. The home team will look to inflict more pain on their opponents. Meanwhile, Taylor is set to play his 200th ODI.
