Pakistan delivered a sensational performance in the third T20I, keeping the series alive with a dominant 9-wicket victory over New Zealand. Chasing a challenging target of 205, Pakistan cruised to victory with four overs to spare, thanks to a brilliant maiden T20I century by Hasan Nawaz. Initially playing a supporting role, Nawaz took charge after Haris' departure, showcasing his skill with clean hitting and clever use of the ramp shot. The small dimensions of Eden Park and the dew factor added to New Zealand's struggles, as their bowlers found no answers to Pakistan's aggressive batting.
With the series now standing at 2-1 in favor of New Zealand, the stage is set for an exciting fourth game. Can Pakistan level the series, or will New Zealand secure the win?
