Neesham out for 1; NZ lose 3rd wkt

October 26, 2021 20:28

NZ 75-3 (12 ovs) vs Pakistan | Scorecard

Part-time off-spinner Mohammed Hafeez comes into the attack. He strikes first ball with the wicket of James Neesham, who looks to swing the full delivery over the leg side but is caught at deep midwicket for one.

Williamson slaps the next ball in the gap through the covers for a couple of runs and then takes a single to long-on.

Devon Conway gets off the mark with one to midwicket and Williamson defends the last ball back to the bowler.

At the halfway mark, New Zealand are 60/3 in 10 overs, with Williamson on 12.

Leggie Shadab is back into the attack. Conway reverse sweeps the first ball but can't get it in the gap before he takes a single.

Shadab gets the third ball to turn sharply as Williamson is beaten before he plays the sweep for a single.

Conway misses the sweep last ball as the ball turns into him to hit his body for a leg bye.

Hafeez strikes another big blow in his next over. Williamson attempts the reverse sweep but is beaten and struck in front to be given out leg before wicket.

But he reviews the decision and rightly so as he had got a thin inside edge as the decision is overturned.

Williamson celebrates the reprieve as he pulls the next ball from Hafeez through midwicket for a four.

The Kiwi captain comes down the track as he fails to get to the pitch but ends up going through his lofted shot. Incredibly, despite getting a hand off the bat, he is able to clear the fielder at long-on for a six.

Williamson tries to reverse the last ball but gets an inside edge for a single, as 12 runs come from the 12th over.
