Duffy to H Rauf
Three runs. Jacob Duffy to Haris Rauf. Length ball, off stump backing away Slog, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to deep backward point for 3 runs, dropped catch by O'Rourke, fielded by Allen. That concludes the first innings, as Pakistan are restricted to a total of 128. Jacob Duffy took two early wickets as Pakistan struggled in the first half of the innings, with on 52 on the board when they lost their fifth wicket in the 11th over. Captain Salman Ali Agha led the recovery with a solid 51, supported by Shadab Khan, who made 28 in a partnership of 54. New Zealand's bowlers were exceptional throughout and once he removed Shadab, James Neesham shone late on, claiming a maiden five-wicket haul to prevent Pakistan gaining any late momentum. Can New Zealand's batters chase down the target with ease, or will Pakistan's bowlers put up a strong fight to defend their total? Let's find out. Join us shortly for the run chase.
