OUT! TAKEN! Tim Southee comes back into the attack and strikes for New Zealand! Cleverly takes pace off and bowls it into the wicket, on middle, Iftikhar Ahmed stays deep in his crease and looks to pull it away behind square on the leg side. The ball gets a bit big on him and he fails to get any power behind the shot due to the lack of pace. Gets it off the upper half of the bat and loops towards short fine leg. Ish Sodhi runs to his left and completes the catch. Pakistan lose Iftikhar Ahmed as they get pegged back in the chase!

FOUR! Azam Khan is up and running! At pace this time, on a hard length, on middle and leg, Azam Khan lifts his front leg and swats it nicely to the left of short fine leg for his first boundary.

Another top effort in the field. This time by Daryl Mitchell. Adam Milne drops his length short over middle and off, and Azam Khan bangs it straight past the bowler with an angled bat. Daryl Mitchell runs a mile across to his left from long on and puts in a dive to keep the ball inside. A couple of replays played to check if there was any part of the foot touching the rope.

Adam Milne goes into the wicket but takes all the pace off, over middle, Azam Khan gets his front leg out of the way to go up and over on the off side. He gets cramped for room and gets this one off the splice of the bat. The ball lobs towards wide mid off where Kane Williamson runs to his left and dives to take a good catch. The ball sticks in his grasp even the elbow hits the ground.

Steams from over the wicket and pitches it back of a length, angling away outside off, Shaheen Afridi goes for a big swing but is beaten on all ends. The ball flies away off the deck to the keeper.

OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Two in the over for Adam Milne and Pakistan slip further! Adam Milne continues from over the wicket and rolls his fingers over the ball. Digs it in short, outside off, Shaheen Afridi looks to use his long levers as he swings and tries to drag the pull on the leg side. Due to the lack of pace, Shaheen gets an outside edge and it is pouched safely behind the wicket by Devon Conway. Shaheen Afridi walks back for a duck!

What a delivery at the new batter! Adam Milne bowls this one on a hard length, getting it to straighten a touch. Aamer Jamal gets beaten on the extra bounce and pace as the ball zips over the stumps to the keeper.

OUT! TAKEN! The slower ball does the trick for Ben Sears! Rolls his fingers over the ball and bowls it on a fuller length, outside off, Babar Azam looks to get underneath the ball to launch the big shot but fails to do so. The bat twists in his hand and he ends up slicing it towards extra cover. Kane Williamson stationed there, reverse cups it in front of his face to send Babar back into the hut.

On a length, angling into the right-hander, clipped away to deep mid-wicket for a single.

Nails the yorker, tailing in, on middle, Aamer Jamal digs it out in front of long on and comes back charging back for the second run.

Leg bye! Sliding on the pads, off pace and on a length, Aamer Jamal misses the clip as the ball rolls off his pads towards square leg for a leg bye.

OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! It's that Sears-Williamson combination again! Hurls it at pace on a back of a length, on middle, Usama Mir stays rooted in his crease as he looks to pull it in front of square on the leg side.

OUT! TAKEN! There it is, the 150th T20I wicket for Tim Southee! Another one bites the dust for Pakistan and New Zealand are closing in on a comfortable victory! Slower and shorter, outside off, Abbas Afridi backs away and tries to slap this one on the off side. No pace on the ball means that he has to generate power to clear the fence. He fails to do so and hits it only as far as deep cover. Matt Henry stationed in the deep, runs in and dives forward to complete the catch. Tim Southee gets his third wicket and New Zealand are just a wicket away from taking the lead in the series!

Swing and a miss! Slower and on a good length, outside of, Haris Rauf swings blindly as he looks to hack it across the line but fails to connect.

Skies it high in the air towards cover-point. Mark Chapman keeps his eyes on the ball all the way through and settles under the skier. The ball swirls away a bit at the last moment but Chapman reacts well to dive to his right and takes it. New Zealand win by 46 runs and go 1-0 up in the series!
