New Zealand vs Pakistan, 3rd T20I at Napier, PAK in NZ, Dec 22 2020 - Match Result

Iftikhar seals it with a HUUUUGE six! that's it, and Pakistan finally get this done. It was in the slot and Iftikhar swing for the fences - and connected!. Pakistan win by four wickets, they finally get the job done. That'll do them the world of good after a difficult month in New Zealand, and maybe, maybe give them a shot in the arm before the Test series

short and wide, that cut shot needed to be a metre either side of backward point. Three off three now

this has gone straight up, and Pakistan lose Rizwan!This game is still alive. Rizwan thought it was in the slot and he looked to deposit it over cow corner like he's done so often this innings, but it goes high up. A glorious knock comes to an end, and Pakistan still need three

full ball to start off. Carves it down to cover point for a single, gets Rizwan on strike

short ball and Iftikhar keeps the strike. Sensible batting

that one's timed better, but fine leg will cut it off. Iftikhar gets another priceless two, though

an ungainly hoick, there was nothing convincing about that but no fielder out there around cow corner on the boundary. NZ had one too many in the ring and Iftikhar manages to punish them

that hat-trick ball was on the money. Tailing back in to Iftikhar and he gets a thick inside edge. Three dot balls in a row, and this is getting tricky again

Two in two! Shadab gone for a golden done. A little too close to cut and he only manages to get an edge through to Seifert. Are Pakistan going to blow this?

gets the wicket of Faheem! Is there life in this contest still? Nothing special about that ball, short and wide and there to be hit, but he only manages a faint edge, and Pakistan lose their fourth

that's a knee high full toss, and Rizwan punishes it! Slaps him to cow corner and it nearly goes all the way. Asking rate under six for the first time now

good ball, right in the blockhole. Driven down to long-on for a single

flat batted that short delivery. Didn't quite manage to get on top of it but it lands safe among two fielders

that area is proving really productive for Rizwan. Slower ball but he goes back and across and clubs him over square leg for four

clever slower delivery, Rizwan can't quite get a hold of that

that's a wide yorker, but a bit too wide for NZ's liking. Umpire calls it, too, nearly on the outer line

wide full toss, lucky not be punished with four. A sloppy throw to the non-striker's end, though, and they still scamper through for a couple

wider and he reaches for it and keeps the strike

six from Rizwan. He's looking to get this done in a hurry! Length ball and he moves across and smashes him over square leg

rocked back and a single down to square leg to start off
