14.5 Boult to Babar Azam, FOUR, just over Conway and to his left. 16.3 Boult to Babar Azam, no run, wow! Given not out for LBW and a smiling Williamson signals for the review. Flies over the stumps Boult with a non-violent fist-pump to celebrate. Boult gives New Zealand a glimmer.

A back of a length delivery outside off, Haider Ali with a monstrous pull that soars miles over the fence. 17.2 Tickner to Babar Azam, FOUR, thumped. 21 off the over and the game's done 18.2 Ish Sodhi to Babar Azam, FOUR, Babar Azam ends it in style. 17.5 Tickner to Haider Ali, SIX, that has gone into crowd and the grassbanks at deep square leg. Tossed up legbreak outside off, he reaches out and lofts over extra-cover and beats long-off to his left. Yesterday, Rizwan anchored the innings and played a match-winning knock, tonight it's the turn of Babar Azam to do the same. POTM and Pakistan captain: We have started well in the batting, me and Rizwan planned to utilise the first six overs and also the dew. As far as New Zealand were concerned, they were poor in the field and more importantly did not have runs in the bank. We wanted a couple of big overs to get to that big score but credit to them, they were very good. We have a plan to send him up to charge the bowlers, he played well [on Shadab at 4]. The guys are feeling good, we know there will be a tough match tomorrow, a bit of homework to do, but looking forward to it.
