    W
    Southee to Haris Rauf
    Touch short just inside the guidelines on off and he confusingly throws his bat at it, Mark Chapman sprints forward and takes an absolute blinder at backward point, kept his eyes locked on the ball and dived impeccably to hold onto it and that also sums up the match as New Zealand register a comprehensive win over Pakistan and go one up in the five-match series.
    17.5
    0
    Southee to Haris Rauf
    Tries to bludgeon a slower ball through covers but can't lay bat on it
    17.4
    W
    Southee to Abbas Afridi
    And that's the 150th wicket for the maestro! Slower ball on short of a length floating on sixth stump line outside off, biffs it out to Henry at deep point
    17.3
    1
    Southee to Aamer Jamal
    Pace off working like a charm for Southee, hits it into the deck on middle stump line, can't get on top of it and mistimes it down the ground for a run only
    17.2
    1
    Southee to Abbas Afridi
    Top edge flies away to square of deep third who makes a fabulous stop, flicked the ball inside the rope and jumped out of the field, then came, reestablished his balance and pinged a sharp throw
    17.1
    1
    Southee to Aamer Jamal
    Slower ball on a length outside off, forces it away to cover for a run, good slow ball
    16.6
    W
    Sears to Usama Mir
    Launches the ball straight to Kane Williamson who takes a few steps forward and takes it as easy as you like. Hits the deck hard and gets some seam movement off the deck, swings big but doesn't control at all and once again New Zealand captain was in action again, comfortably caught
    16.5
    1
    Sears to Aamer Jamal
    Raps the pads and rolls over to short square, fine leg charges in to intercept the ball as they sneak a bye
    16.4
    2
    Sears to Aamer Jamal
    Nails a perfect yorker on middle, digs it out to midwicket and all the fielders are sitting deep in the crease so they manage to scamper back for the second run
    16.3
    1
    Sears to Usama Mir
    Uppishly played this length on middle in the peninsula between square leg and midwicket for a run
    16.2
    W
    Sears to Babar Azam
    Babar Azam spoons one straight to Kane Williamson at wide mid-off and that is a massive breakthrough, still many left to be scored but Babar Azam loses the plot, just couldn't clear the fielder just outside the ring, terrific ball on a length outside off and he couldn't pierce it in the gap, is that the game?
    16.1
    4
    Sears to Babar Azam
    Thick edge scoots away to third man for a four! Pakistan are not out of it, they have been lucky in last few overs
    15.6
    4
    Milne to Aamer Jamal
    Fielder at deep backward point drops a sitter and it trickles away to the boundary! Short and wide, rasped aerially and nearly lost his wicket. Henry came in a few steps but the ball was hit right out of the screws and barely gave him any time to react but you got to take these catches at this level
    15.5
    6
    Milne to Aamer Jamal
    Short of a length on middle, swivels and tugs it over square leg for a six, soaring high into the air, up and up, and eventually coming down in the stands.
    15.4
    0
    Milne to Aamer Jamal
    Short of a length on an unimpeachable line on middle, straightening a touch and Aamer Jamal had no clue about it, welcome Aamer Jamal
    15.3
    W
    Milne to Shaheen Shah Afridi
    And the move to promote himself up the order backfires! Scorching delivery in the hot zone outside off, off-cutter, gets extra kick off the deck and he tries to clobbers it across the line, ball takes an edge and keeper does the rest, safely snaffled
    15.2
    0
    Milne to Shaheen Shah Afridi
    Massive yahoo across the line and only grabs fresh air. Proper fast bowling, short and veering across off
    15.1
    W
    Milne to Azam Khan
    Oh, that's an untimely wicket for Pakistan but exactly what New Zealand needed to make it stiffer for the visitors. Williamson catches it safely in the deep at long-off as Azam Khan got in a tangle and it was a nothing shot in the end
    14.6
    4
    Sears to Babar Azam
    Brings up a half-century with a crisp cut off the backfoot and it's in the gap. Long way to go but this is a good sign for Pakistan that Babar Azam is among the runs and we just saw some beautiful boundaries. Babar Azam has gone past Guptill and is third on the highest run getters list in T20Is
    14.5
    6
    Sears to Babar Azam
    Swung down the ground for six, that is a fabulous shot. Got on top of bounce and clubs it over long on for a might long six
