NZ vs PAK Highlights: New Zealand Beats Pakistan by 46 Runs, Babar Azam Back in Form |
In a frenzied, fun game at Eden Park in Auckland in front of a raucous weekend crowd, New Zealand beat Pakistan by 46 runs to pour cold water over Shaheen Afridi's coronation as T20I captain. New Zealand took advantage of a somewhat indifferent display with the ball from a Pakistani side that had opted to field first, with Daryl Mitchell and Kane Williamson striking half-centuries to top up a blistering attack from Finn Allen. Pakistan tried to pull things back with debutant Abbas Afridi's 3 for 34 an admirable display in hostile bowling conditions, but it wouldn't stop the home side from amassing 226. thanks to a late cameo from Mark Chapman.
