19.6 to IS Sodhi, Leg-cutter on a length wide outside off, swings big but doesn't control his bat and Iftikhar at mid-off is called into action again, he tracks the ball, settles under at takes an easy catch, it's his third catch.. 178/7

4.6 to TA Blundell, Pakistan finally manage to get a breakthrough! Usama Mir takes a superb running catch at short third, much-needed wicket for Pakistan. Blundell committed to the pull too early, just checked his shot and got the top edge that ballooned up, Usama was alert behind square on the leg side, sprinted across and gobbled it up down his throat with ease. Will this bring the scoring rate down?. 56/1

10.2 to TB Robinson, Launches height into the night sky but hasn't got the distance! How often have we seen that happen in T20 cricket, wicket straight after the pause. It was a full-bunger on middle, he saw the opportunity and swung lustily through the line, Iftikhar Ahmed perched on the edge of the boundary at long-on hang on to it brilliantly and after taking a few looks, third umpire confirms it's a clean catch, New Zealand have lost a few wickets in a cluster, window is open to pick a couple more to prevent a colossal total. Tim Robinson has done his job though, batted beautifully for his half-century. 94/2
18.5 to MG Bracewell, Iftikhar Ahmed charges in from the deep at long-off and pockets the catch low down, wheels off in a jubilation. It was full on a suffocating off-stump line, shovels it into the air and Iftikhar takes a stupendous diving catch, brilliant anticipation, Pakistan have been switched on in the field today. Captain has played a good hand, Neesham will have to take the responsibility now. 169/5
18.6 to JA Clarkson, Sounds the death rattle! That is a perfection execution of a yorker, demolished him with a searing inswinging yorker on middle, too good for thee, goes without troubling the scorers, It's been a magnificent spell from Abbas! He jammed the bat down an eternity after the stumps were flattened. 169/6
4043110.7571400
14.3 to D Foxcroft, Another one bites the dust! That hung in the air for a while and was snaffled while the fielder was moving to his left. Floated up shorter on off, got plenty of bounce, tries to get underneath and looked to big over deep midwicket, more elevation than distance, Fakhar is safe as a house in the outfield. Foxcroft loses the plot as he tried to accelerate, the wicket will stymie the run-flow. 132/4
201417.0040020
13.5 to MS Chapman, Shadab has taken a gem! Slowed it up on a length at middle, backed away and went for a full-blooded shot and it was destined to reach the fence but Shadab Khan had other ideas, he has taken an absolute screamer at wide mid-off, jumped one-handed instinctively and leapt onto it like a tiger catches its prey, such a livewire in the field, crucial wicket! Danger-man is out!. 128/3

1.6 to Babar Azam, Good length, shapes back from outside off, tempts him to go for a drive and he obliges, he pummels it straight to the fielder at short cover who dives forward and takes a stunning grab, Foxcroft with a brilliant piece of fielding in the circle, it was a slower one that totally flummoxed Babar. Massive wicket! . 13/1
4.3 to Saim Ayub, Looking to go over backward square but hasn't connected well, straight to fielder who reverse-cups, it, Clarkson making no mistake. Just a gentle flick and not enough power behind the shot, he looks crestfallen after that selection of shot.. 40/2
16.3 to Iftikhar Ahmed, Didn't time it well enoughSuch a timely breakthrough, twist in the tale! Lands it on a length wide of off, he throws the kitchen sink at it and it didn't make a good sound, Neesham comes in from deep cover and takes a comfortable catch at his waist height, Iftikhar is gutted with himself, his cameo comes to an end but there is still some batting to come. Imad coming in next. 138/5
402726.7594000
5.3 to Usman Khan, Soft dismissal! A massive blow and Pakistan are in a spot of bother. Hits it into the deck at middle, he dances down the track and lofts it straight to mid-on where Duffy made sure he doesn't drops a dolly.. 46/3
17.4 to Fakhar Zaman, Has he got enough? No, he hasn't. Is that the game? Searing yorker on the legs, chipped in the air and straight into the hands of Foxcroft who catches it brilliantly. Huge moment in the game. Fakhar cannot believe it, crowd cannot believe it.. 146/6

9.4 to Shadab Khan, In the air and Neesham doesn't errs on this occasion, didn't have to move much at deep midwicket and swallows it down his throat at deep midwicket, tossed up, wicket to wicket with some drift in, early through the hoick and Shadab has thrown his wicket away at a crucial juncture of the game. Mistimed it, just when Pakistan were getting a semblance of control, another wicket falls down. New Zealand sit in a strong position, one more wicket and it will become a herculean task for Pakistan to keep the asking rate in check, Imad and Iftikhar coming in next. 79/4
2021110.5033020
19.2 to Usama Mir, Tremendous riposte! Rams the yorker in the blockhole and he goes for a full-blooded swing towards the leg side, ball sneaks through and shatters the stumps, off his pads and onto the stumps, gotta go. 165/8
