New Zealand vs Pakistan 1st Test Live Telecast Channel: The SportsRush presents before you the timing and live streaming details of the first NZ vs PAK Test.

The last leg of this year’s international cricket will begin tomorrow in the form of the first Test between New Zealand and Pakistan in Mount Maunganui. In what will only be the second Test at the Bay Oval, it is worth mentioning that New Zealand had won the inaugural one against England by an innings and 65 runs.

Having won a three-match T20I series 2-1 and four out of their last five Tests against Pakistan, New Zealand will unequivocally be banking on what has been an impressive summer season.

Pakistan, whose last overseas Test victory dates back to May 2018 against England and last Test victory in New Zealand dates back to 2011, have a daunting challenge lying ahead for them in the absence of captain Babar Azam, all-rounder Shadab Khan and opening batsman Imam-ul-Haq.
