Commentary

Right then! Pakistan have achieved an historic feat as they top the ICC ODI Rankings for the first time ever. That speaks volumes of consistency in their recent results. They put up a clinical performance with both bat and ball today to steamroll the Kiwis.

It's been all Pakistan throughout this series so far and they will be hungry to complete the clean sweep on Sunday. Join us for the LIVE coverage at 3.30 pm IST, until then, this is Pragadeesh and Karthik Raj saying goodbye and goodnight

Babar Azam:: The team efforts and the hard work from the support staff helped us to be number one. Credit to the boys for putting in the effort in tough times. The journey has been good and in fact it has been a memorable one. The career gas been filled with support, sacrifices and struggle so far. The wicket played well today. We planned to build partnerships. Myself and Agha built a partnership and decided to take it deep. We thought 310 was possible. Shaheen got us more. As a team, we had decided we would test our bench strength. We need to prepare for future games and events. We needed to be sure of our best 15 or 16 players.

Babar Azam was adjudged Player of the match

Tom Latham (New Zealand captain): They played really well. They had a great platform and built on that. Credit to the way they played in the first innings. If you look from a development point of view against Pakistan who are excellent in these conditions, we will look it as a success having learned a lot. When chasing a score like that, you want one person to bat through while the others bat around and that didn't happen. We have got one more opportunity to make ourselves proud. The guys are definitely trying hard

Time for the Post-match Presentation!

Pakistan won by 102 runs
Babar Azam 107(117) | Tom Latham 60(76)
Mohammad Wasim 3-40 (8.4) | Matt Henry 3-65 (10)

A thumping win for Pakistan and they go top of the ICC ODI rankings. All smiles in their dressing room as they go 4-0 up in the series. New Zealand, on the other hand, would be disappointed for leaking too many runs at the death and that made it difficult for the batters in the run chase

The Kiwis failed to get off to a good start while chasing a big score. After losing the openers, Mitchell and Latham did a rebuilding job and struck an 83-run partnership but Mir dismissed the former to put them on the back foot. We saw some fireworks from Chapman's blade as he took Pakistan's bowling attack from the word go. Chapman's counter-attack and Latham's calculated aggression provided some much-needed impetus to the innings in the middle stage.

The partnership proved scary until Afridi came back and got rid of Latham at a crucial time. Soon after, Chapman was knocked over by Mir and the Kiwis lost wickets in clusters once the southpaw made his way to the dugout. They lost five wickets for just 31 runs and capitulated in the end

43.4 Mohammad Wasim to Blair Tickner, CLEAN BOWLED! Full and tailing in, Tickner looks to make room and cream it through the covers but he misses as the stumps get rattled. Pakistan seal a 102-run victory to go 4-0 up in the series

Blair Tickner b Mohammad Wasim 6 (11b, 0x4, 0x6)

43.3 Mohammad Wasim to Ben Lister, full on the stumps, Lister tries to work it through the leg-side but he gets a leading-edge which rolls to cover. Single taken

43.2 Mohammad Wasim to Ben Lister, length delivery outside-off, Lister looks to chop it behind point but he gets an under-edge which rolls to the keeper

43.1 Mohammad Wasim to Blair Tickner, full outside-off, Tickner tries to make room and drive through extra-cover but he gets an inside-edge to fine-leg. Single taken

Mir registers his best bowling figures. He played a pivotal part in some of the crucial dismissals, especially his wicket of Chapman just tilted the match in Pakistan's favour

42.6 Usama Mir to Ben Lister, googly on a length, Lister safely defends it to the leg-side. No run

A leg slip in place

Ben Lister, RHB, walks in at no.11

Mir is having an excellent day at the office and picks up his fourth wicket. Can he finish his spell with a maiden fifer?

42.5 Usama Mir to Matt Henry, USAMA GETS HIS FOURTH! Tossed up full outside-leg, Henry tries to make room and swing but he ends up skying it to long-on where Rauf takes a good catch. He wasn't far away from the fence!

42.4 Usama Mir to Blair Tickner, full on the stumps, Tickner pushes it to long-off for a single

42.3 Usama Mir to Blair Tickner, tossed up leg-break, Tickner looks to go big down the ground but he misses it completely

42.2 Usama Mir to Blair Tickner, slider on a good length, Tickner tries to work it to the leg-side but he misses it. LBW appeal turned down but Babar signals for the DRS! No spike on the Ultra-Edge but ball-tracking shows that it pitched outside-leg. So, Pakistan lose their final review too!

42.1 Usama Mir to Blair Tickner, tossed up leg-break, Tickner lifts it wide of long-off for a couple of runs
