T20 Start Times in Pakistan Time
New Zealand schedules T20Is in two slots. Evening T20Is — 7:15 pm NZDT — are the standard prime-time slot and convert to 11:15 am PKT, the comfortable viewing window for Pakistani fans. Day T20Is — 2:15 pm NZDT — land at 6:15 am PKT. In the March 2025 series, the first two T20Is (Christchurch, Dunedin) were day games; the last three (Auckland, Mount Maunganui, Wellington) were evening games. The conversion rule: subtract 8 hours in the NZ summer. For the full time-zone method, see today’s Pak vs NZ match time.
Where to Watch the T20s
In Pakistan, bilateral Pak vs NZ T20Is air on Ten Sports with streaming on Tapmad — PTV Sports did not hold the 2025 bilateral rights, so don’t go looking there for tours. For ICC T20 tournaments (like the T20 World Cup), PTV Sports carries Pakistan matches free-to-air alongside streaming on Myco and Tamasha. In New Zealand, TVNZ+ streams home T20Is free; India gets Sony Sports/SonyLiv. Our Pak vs NZ hub has the worldwide broadcaster list.
