    10.4 Miscues the skier! First breakthrough for New Zealand as Rizwan mistimes this shot, he hits the deck hard and it was on an attacking off stump line, hits him high on the blade and bobs up in the air, Mitchell at mid-off takes a regulation catch. A timely scalp for New Zealand as these were looking ominous, new batter will take some time before teeing off 99/1

    10.5 Two in two! Henry shows his knack of picking wickets in quick succession yet again as Fakhar is absolutely flummoxed, a tentative poke through the off side and he drags it back onto the stumps, zingers are alight as the southpaw takes the long walk back into the pavilion. Talk about accuracy and sticking to the guns, he is on a hat trick again! 99/2
    11.5 Another one bites the dust as we witness a mini-collapse from Pakistan! Tempts him to go big with the flight and he obliges, went for the slog sweep but didn't get the distance, goes straight into the hands of Neesham at deep square 102/3
    12.5 Edged and taken! Pakistan's progress has been beset by the loss of wickets as Wasim loses his shape while trying to heave it over off side, deceived by the cunning change of pace and nicks it to the keeper. Arms aloft as Neesham gets his man. It was a lovely line with a hint of movement, Neesham wins the mind battle 105/4

    6.2 Tossed up, raps the pad and prompts an lbw appeal, the ball was skidding through and beats his flick, umpire is convinced and raises the dreaded finger. Latham decides to send it upstairs. It is pitching in line, the impact is in line and wickets hitting, three reds and Latham has to go! He was hoping against hope that it might have pitched outside leg but no luck on this occasion as the New Zealand captain departs for 19. A timely scalp from the leggie 44/1

    7.5 Zingers are alight! Bowes ebullience lasted 26 deliveries as he tried to slog it away through square leg, beaten in the flight and by the subtle turn, his stumps are shattered and once again the chase is derailed. Imad is absolutely ecstatic and the centurion Babar Azam loved it as well 52/2
    11.4 Shadab Khan pockets the catch low down at long-on, he is cool as a cucumber in the deep, a very safe fielder as Young miscues the skier as he couldn't get underneath it. Shadab didn't have to move much to gobble this up as New Zealand lose the plot 85/3

    14.1 Swung hard but didn't get all of it! Rolled his fingers on it and the clever change of pace induces the error, soaring high into the air, up and up, and eventually coming down into the safe hands of Shadab Khan at long on who reverse cups it. He is varying the pace and getting them to mistime their shts 108/4
    14.6 This is Haris Rauf's world and we are only living in it Another ferocious bouncer angled into the body and he can't handle the chin music, Neesham mistimes it straight to Shaheen Afridi at mid-off and departs after only adding one to the score. New Zealand stare into the abyss, it's looking a repeat of first T20I as the visitors are collapsing like a house of cards, finding it tough to find boundaries 112/5
    17.2 Haris Rauf yet again the main protagonist of today's certain win as he bowls another superb slower off cutter and lures him into going over the top, he didn't get the power behind that shot and is bagged by Fakhar at cow corner region 131/6
    19.4 Sounds the death rattle! A dipping yorker and he makes a mess of his stumps. A well-disguised yorker that completely befuddles McConchie 147/7
