0.6 to Mohammad Haris, Frustration was creeping in and he finally manages to make a connection but only to give a simple catch to Hay who makes no mistake swooping to his right; he was trying to steer that one away and just got a faint edge. Dismal start from Pakistan and Hairs on his comeback - too much aggression I would say. Perfect spread of deliveries from Jamieson. 0/1
2.2 to Irfan Khan, Pakistan staring into the abyss already. Caught behind flirting with the lifter outside off and has to take the long walk back into the hut. Shortish on fourth stump line and gets a feather edge. 1/3
4.4 to Shadab Khan, Robinson takes a gem at gully and Shadab has to go! Wickets continue to tumble for Pakistan. It was dug in short and he was lured with plenty of width, he tries to break free with a slash and finds a fielder behind square on off. Frantic and chaotic start from Pakistan. 11/4

1.2 to Hasan Nawaz, Perishes! Short of a length, slanting across off, tries to muscle it over midwicket and instead gets a leading edge to deep third who takes a regulation catch in the deep. Both openers back in the hut. 0/2
12.6 to Khushdil Shah, Around the wicket, curling it away through the gate and the ball leaps towards chest height, hammers it straight to Allen at backward point and another set batter departs. It's not looking good at all for Pakistan.. 64/6
18.1 to Shaheen Shah Afridi, What a terrific catch from Hay; sprinting back and tracked the ball from the bat, into the air and then made sure he doesn't spill it, wonderful tumbling catch as Shaheen tries to tonk it over midwicket and gets a top-edge, cleared front leg for a slog and got flummoxed by the cunning slower one. 89/9
18.4 to Abrar Ahmed, Again steps leg-side and tries an ambitious inside-out smack, on this fuller delivery, over cover but finds that man again Michael Bracewell at mid-off who takes the easiest of catches with both hands as Pakistan collapse on 91! Stellar work from New Zealand; the decision to bowl first proved to be the right one. 91/10
301113.66100010
17.1 to Jahandad Khan, Takes the pace off and hits the deck hard, ball stops in the surface and bounces steeply, plays a nothing shot in the end, Michael Bracewell backtracks at long-off and takes a cool and calm catch in front of his head. Everything New Zealand touch turns to gold. 85/8

11.1 to Agha Salman, Over the wicket, that one hung in the air for a while and snaffled at deep square. He stretched forward for a sweep and found the fielder; just when Pakistan got things moving, skipper departs. 57/5
15.3 to Abdul Samad, Floated up on sixth stump line, takes the aerial route and finds the safe pair of hands of New Zealand's captain Michael Bracewell who gobbles it down his throat at long-off, the debutant goes for seven. Doesn't get a proper connection and hits it straighter than he wanted to. 80/7

5.5 to TL Seifert, Seifert had no intentions to drop down his intensity and wanted to cash in with a cut, finds a bottom edge and it's a fantastic take by Haris. His blistering innings comes to an end but he has done his job; heaps of experience and he didn't anytime to resume normal service in black jersey. 53/1
