17-Dec-14 - Pakistan v New Zealand

Who is fatigued now is the mysterious question!

Technically New Zealand are the superior team. Pakistan have the home advantage. After the second test and throughout the T20s Pakistanis are the ones who looked fatigued. But New Zealand players are more fatigued after their prolonged sub-continent visit.

Most of the main New Zealand players are in the sub-continent from September (Champions League T20). They have shown lots of promise of playing against spin. But it was an extended run. Now the curtains are coming down very fast.

Naturally New Zealand batsmen can play pace and swing. They can manage flat trajectory spin. But they can't play flight, turn and bounce. They have actually over achieved in the last 4 months against spin. Now the fatigue is killing them from playing well against spin.

Pakistan @ 8/13 - 2$
