The Pakistani cricket team toured New Zealand in November 2016 to play two Test matches. Christchurch and Hamilton were the venues scheduled to host the two Test matches of ANZ international series between the Blackcaps and Pakistan.
The first Test of the series went ahead as planned on 17 November, despite Christchurch suffering a 7.8 magnitude earthquake, just after midnight on 14 November. However, no play was possible on the first day due to rain.
New Zealand won the series 2-0. This was New Zealand's first series win against Pakistan in Tests since 1985.
