14.6H Rauf135/9
Run OUT. OUT! Run Out. James Neesham to Shaheen Afridi. Half volley, wide outside off stump deep in crease driving, mis-timed to long off for 1 run, fielded by Bracewell, by Neesham. That brings us to the end of the first innings. After losing a couple of early wickets, skipper Salman Ali Agha solidified the innings from one end, scoring a valuable 46, while Shadab and Shaheen contributed with handy cameos. It was a collective bowling performance from New Zealand bowlers, with Duffy, Sears, Sodhi and Neesham all picking up 2 wickets. Let's see whether the hosts can chase down the total in this rain-shortened game or will the Pakistan bowlers be able to restrict a top order full of firepower.
