New Zealand vs Pakistan Highlights
Sarfaraz Ahmed hit the winning runs as Pakistan defeated New Zealand by 6 wickets to register a much-needed victory. It was a potential do-or-die game for Pakistan and they displayed positive intent throughout. Their bowlers gave them a great start as half of the Kiwi side were in the dressing room in no time and took a hundred-run stand between Colin de Grandhomme and James Neesham to get New Zealand to a commendable total. But the Pakistani batsmen started their chase on a positive note and timed the ball to perfection right from the beginning. A stupendous century from Babar Azam and a gritty half-century from Harris Sohail saw Pakistan register a memorable victory.
Playing XI
New Zealand:Â Martin Guptill, Colin Munro, Kane Williamson(c), Ross Taylor, Tom Latham(w), James Neesham, Colin de Grandhomme, Mitchell Santner, Matt Henry, Lockie Ferguson, Trent Boult.

It was a two-paced pitch when New Zealand played South Africa. That will make the toss tricky.

IT’S A WIN
PAKISTAN DEFEAT NEW ZEALAND BY 6 WICKETS.Skipper Sarafarz Ahmed hits the winning runs as Pakistan beat New Zealand by six wickets at Edgbaston in Birmingham. It was a much-needed victory for them as with this win they have kept their hopes alive in the ICC World Cup 2019. New Zealand who were unbeaten throughout the tournament will now need to reassess their strategies as a semis berth is not yet confirmed for them. -
What an innings it has been!
Babar Azam played like a true hero today and deserved a century. He played 124 balls to complete his 10th international century. But this one will be the most memorable one as it came in a potential do or die match at the ICC World Cup 2019. WIth this 100 he surely has guided his team to a much-needed victory against New Zealand who have remained unbeaten throughout the tournament. -
The Pakistani batsmen had started it with some real intent as their openers were also timing the balls to perfection. But with Babar and Sohail, it’s all about class as they are hitting Trent Boult and Santner with ease now.
PAK: 224/3 -

ANOTHER 50 BY HARIS SOHAIL
What a comeback this man has had! Haris Sohail was left out of the team before getting picked against South Africa where he showed his class with a fluent 89. Today also he is showing his heroics with the bat as he scored another 50 on a track that has been hard to bat on.
PAK: 209/3.
