New Zealand innings (50 overs maximum)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
BB McCullum†	b Umar Gul	131	206	129	14	3	101.55
46.2 Baz's super innings comes to an end. He cleared the front leg and went for the good-old slog to the on side but dragged it off the inner edge from well outside off to his stumps. 274/7
AJ Redmond	c Younis Khan b Mohammad Aamer	6	18	8	1	0	75.00
4.1 Full in length, moving across Redmond who tries to lift it over the off-side field but mistimes it straight to mid-off. The bat-face wobbled at the point of impact and he couldn't time or provide any power to that shot. 21/1
MJ Guptill	c Mohammad Aamer b Abdul Razzaq	62	82	70	5	2	88.57
23.6 Guptill throws his wicket away. He walked down the track, looking for the big hit, Razzaq shortened the length and Guptill flat-batted his heave towards sweeper cover.. fine innings, though from Guptill 147/2
LRPL Taylor	b Shahid Afridi	0	2	2	0	0	0.00
24.2 Afridi the rock star strikes. The slider does the trick. It was outside off stump, skidded on straight almost, Taylor pushed outside the line and stabbed it on to the stumps 147/3
SB Styris	run out (Younis Khan)	9	11	13	1	0	69.23
27.4 Abdul Razzaq to McCullum, Styris is run out Direct hit from Younis Khan. It was pushed past the diving short extra cover and McCullum calls Styris for a single. It was easy for McCullum as he was already down the track when he played that shot. Styris had to wait to see the short cover didn't stop it before he responded to the call. Too late. Younis, at mid-off, swoops on the ball and fires down the stumps. Gone! 160/4
DL Vettori*	c †Kamran Akmal b Abdul Razzaq	30	40	33	1	0	90.90
37.4 slightly short in length around the off stump, Vettori went for the pull but top-edged it up in the air and Kamran Akmal gets under it 214/5
NT Broom	lbw b Shahid Afridi	0	1	2	0	0	0.00
38.3 Dead plumb. Done in by the googly. It landed on a length around off stump and broke back in to move past the nervous waft and hit him in front of middle. 218/6
JDP Oram	not out	33	54	33	0	1	100.00

KD Mills	c Khalid Latif b Umar Gul	4	4	7	0	0	57.14
48.1 moves outside leg, goes for the big lofted drive but drags it straight to long-on 287/8
SE Bond	not out	10	7	6	1	0	166.66

Khalid Latif	lbw b Vettori	45	77	52	6	0	86.53

Shahid Afridi	c Taylor b Styris	0	1	1	0	0	0.00

Kamran Akmal†	c Guptill b Styris	4	9	8	0	0	50.00
