Commentary

Thanks a lot for joining us- Mohul Bhowmick and Pradeep- for the coverage of New Zealand's reply to the total set to them by Pakistan at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium in Uppal, Hyderabad. We hope you enjoyed New Zealand's batting as they chased 345 down in just 43.4 overs. Until next time, ciao and have a good weekend!

Kane Williamson: It was good to get a bit of match practice with the bat, being part of the match was nice and held up nicely and little bit of icing after, it's all part of the process. Wasn't a reality five months ago, to be quite fortune with the recovery, being named in the squad was exciting, looking forward to get out there and nice to do that today. It was largely pretty good, it was pleasing and need to build on that. Fantastic head out, Pakistan are an outstanding side, bowlers got time on the field and it is an exercise and it's about competing, plenty of take aways from it. There's always things to work on, it was a great batting performance today, nice surface and we've been able to put partnerships and batters could get time in the middle. We head off to next game, it's difference surface and different opposition of course, important to come to that match with fresh ayes and ensure we get what we want from it.

New Zealand beat Pakistan by 5 wickets!

Mohammad Rizwan 103 (94) | Mitchell Santner 2-39
Rachin Ravindra 97 (72) | Usama Mir 2-68

Although New Zealand got off to a rather slow start, they managed to build a strong partnership just as number three and skipper Kane Williamson joined opener Rachin Ravindra. The latter then teed off and put on a stellar showing of batting.

Williamson joined in and made the most of the freebies that Pakistan offered them. All of Pakistan's seamers were guilty of not changing the pace of the ball often and conceding far too many boundaries. This surface here at Uppal in Hyderabad was a belter for batting but some ingenuity was needed from the bowlers.

Off-cutters and slower ones may have been a good option here, but unfortunately, Pakistan's bowlers did not try them at all. Apart from Ravindra, who got out unfortunately on 97, Williamson, Daryl Mitchell and Mark Chapman struck fifties.

This was the bedrock upon which the Kiwi chase was built, and if they keep batting this way, they will be a tough team to beat in the World Cup. Jimmy Neesham too struck a few lusty blows when he came out to bat later but had to perish off Mohammad Wasim when he tried to go for one too many.

Devon Conway and Tom Latham were the only batters who missed out on getting a big score today, but they will be hoping to change that when they travel to Thiruvananthapuram to take on South Africa in their next warm-up match on Monday.

That will be that! Chapman seals the deal for New Zealand by picking this slower delivery up and depositing it over long on!

43.4 Hasan Ali to Mark Chapman, SIX! GAME, SET AND MATCH! This is absolute annihilation from New Zealand, chased 346 with 38 balls to spare, thumping win this. Change of pace, back of a length on the fourth stump, Chapman through with the shot too early and pummels it all the way over long-on to seal the game.

Excellent delivery bowled by Hasan Ali for the free hit!

43.3 Hasan Ali to Mitchell Santner, low full toss outside the off-stump, Santner reaches and driven it to deep covers for just one.

43.3 Hasan Ali to Mitchell Santner, WIDE! Yorker, but goes outside the tramline as Santner reaches to drive and misses, called a wide.

FREE HIT LOADING!

43.3 Hasan Ali to Mark Chapman, NO-BALL! Low full toss on the off-stump, Chapman clipped it to deep mid-wicket for one. Hasan has overstepped, it's called a no-ball!

He pierces the gap rather well this time!

43.2 Hasan Ali to Mark Chapman, FOUR MORE! Excellent placement between deep square-leg and deep mid-wicket, goes one bounce into the ropes. Back of a length on the off-stump, Chapman heaves that one away, doesn't get all of it, but the placement was apt.

Chapman opened the face of the bat and picked up a boundary!

43.1 Hasan Ali to Mark Chapman, FOUR! Terrific shot from Chapman. Wide low full toss, Chapman crouches and slices it well wide of short third-man, runs away and finds the ropes.

The Kiwis need 18 runs to win this game, and Chapman will hope to wrap it up as quickly as he can. Santner will look to support him as well.

42.6 Mohammad Wasim to Mitchell Santner, length delivery on the pads, Santner clipped it straight to short mid-wicket for no run.

42.5 Mohammad Wasim to Mitchell Santner, back of a length outside the off-stump, Santner punched it into the turf, but straight to point.

Mitchell Santner, LHB, is in at 7.

That was rather anti-climactic, but it will give the chance to other batters to finish the game.

42.4 Mohammad Wasim to James Neesham, OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Finally a wicket for Pakistan, but is that too little too late? Full toss on the off-stump, rushes Neesham a touch as he swings across the line and miscued it straight up. Shadab at extra-cover takes a sitter.
