What's new

Pakistan (207/1) defeat New Zealand (204) by 9 wickets in the third T20I game to keep the series hope alive

This start illustrates how important pitch bounce is. Auckland has the lowest bounce in New Zealand. Reasons why Haris and Nawaz have ben able to hit it today.

It was really not an ideal situation to debut youngsters in SENA.
 
"This is a change from the old guard, this is what Pakistan has been looking for"
 
5: 67-0

Now to keep the score ticking.... donot slow down too much boys
 
Credit to Aqib to stick with these two . One would have easily changed here

Not the only reason, in all 3 matches ball was swinging in first 3-4 overs only in first innings. Pakistan were unlucky to lose both the tosses in previous matches.

Today NZ struggled in first 3 overs.
 
This is Haris' shortcoming. His shot selection but if he can give us starts like this more often he'll be an asset
 
That’s the difference no selfish approach by Harris could have easily stayed till 50 . But he continued

Which proves the point even further that it's hard for new folks to start in SENA. Fans are too harsh to judge them not taking in the SENA conditions into account.

This is not the problem. This is the strength. We don’t need opener sticking around. We want explosive starts at 200+ strike rate 3-4 out of 10 games like today. If opener is there after 10 overs every other game that’s a problem
 
Amazing start! This is what we need. Quickfire 30-40 at the top from the openers. Thats the role for them. Not to bat run a ball for 20 overs.

Hmmm I get it
 
First smart late cut 444444444444 from Nawaz... This is good... He is doing well now
 
Hassan will develop well . He is raw talent and I think it ws good to put him in hard situation directly. It will be good for him now he needs a good solid PSL
 
90s cricketer vibe from Nawaz

They used to produce proper players back then
