Pakistan vs New Zealand fifth T20 match

Today, the fifth T20 match i.e. the last T20 match of the T20 series between the host Pakistan and the visiting New Zealand team is going to be played at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore. In this five-match T20I series between Pakistan and New Zealand, after the hosts Pakistan won the second T20I, they were miserably defeated by the New Zealand team in the third and fourth in the next two matches. In the two matches that the Pakistan team lost, their batting, bowling and fielding performances were not good, which saw them losing the match to a young and inexperienced New Zealand team. Today's match is very important for Pakistan team because if New Zealand team wins then they will easily win this T20 series against Pakistan.

Pakistan batting first and scored 178 runs in a loss of 5 wickets. Babar Azam batting performance is outstanding scored a half-century 69 runs from just 44 balls and helped the Pakistan team to reached the 170 plus total. New Zealand current score is 92 runs by loss of 2 wickets in overst 10 overs of the match. M. Bracewell is playing 21 runs and Chapman is playing at 9 runs, this partnership is very important for New Zealand if they win this match. New Zealand need 87 runs from just 60 balls to win this match against Pakistan and also win the series.

Pakistan team lost the toss and came down to bat and lost one wicket in the beginning. If Babar Azam batted responsibly, Babar Azam batted very well against Pakistan and got out with 69 runs from 44 balls. Due to the responsible batting of Babar Azam, the Pakistan team managed to collect 178 runs in the allotted 20 overs.  The opener Tim Seifert batted brilliantly and scored 52 runs from 33 balls. If two batsmen could have batted responsibly like Tim Seifert, New Zealand would have won today's match. Pakistan team defeated New Zealand by 9 runs.

178 is not a new target in this series. In 3rd T20I Pakistan scored 178 runs batting first while in 4th T20I New Zealand scored 178 batting first. New Zealand chased 178 quite easily in 3rd T20I and today there position is looking quite good so far. After 11.3 overs, New Zealand score is 97 and they need 82 more runs to win in 53 balls. Pakistani bowlers so far have got 4 wickets and if they can get few more in quick succession then they will be in position to stop New Zealand from chasing this target.

Tonight I think paksitan will know the importance of Shaheen shah Afridi because today he took the most important four wickets with economy of just 7 around which is quite impressive and to be honest I was expecting paksitan to win this match after such low target but the way Shaheen build pressure on them and keep cooking them until get the game was quite excited to watch also a good comback of usama mir really help his team to won the last game through which they has level the series by 2-2. Anyway new Zealand bowler delivered quality spells because putting Fakhar and iftikhar in trouble especially at last overs are much difficult but they supervbly done it otherwise paksitan will be around or above 200 Target. Thanks to baber and Fakhar for sunsational inning because through thier contribution paksitan got his colour.

In today's final match of the T20 series between Pakistan and New Zealand, the Pakistan team batted first and gave the New Zealand team a target of 179 runs. I think a target of 179 runs is not too difficult for the New Zealand team. Because we have seen in previous matches of this series where New Zealand team players have performed very well. However, the New Zealand team won the previous two matches of this series by a landslide. It is expected that in today's match too, the players of the New Zealand team will win the series by winning the final match through great performance.

Yeah, Pakistan gave the big target of 179 to new Zealand. babar azam played brilliant innings of 69 runs. New Zealand failed to chased this total they made 169 runs, tim seifert make fifty while Clarkson played excellent not out inning of 38 runs but unlucky to finish match for his team. brilliant spell by shaheen afridi takes 4 wickets in last over. NZ need 12 runs but remaining two batsmen got Run out and pakistan won this match by 9 runs. excellent performance by team new Zealand in this series and their new younger players gave tough time to Pakistan and they level the series by 2-2.

Fifth and last game of New Zealand tour to Pakistan was played today and now this game was also ended now. 1 st game of this series was not concluded due to poor condition. Today game, Pakistan effort was really outstanding in batting line and B.Azam made a brilliant half century and total made 69 runs in 44 balls and he hitted six 4s and two 6s. But unfortunately, B.azam was dismissed for 69 runs did not complete century. Today, A.Afridi was fired on New Zealand batsman. He took down 4 wickets in 4 overs with 30 runs out he is my favourite bowler from Pakistan team and his bowling pace was amazing. New Zealand team chased only 169 runs and only 9 runs need for win but all Batsman of New Zealand was dismissed and some balls also left for play. Tim Seifert also made a half century in game but next batsman after he dismissed did not played good and picked low runs.

~ New Zealand chased 178 quite easily in 3rd T20I and today there position is looking quite good so far. After 11.3 overs, New Zealand score is 97 and they need 82 more runs to win in 53 balls. Pakistani bowlers so far have got 4 wickets and if they can get few more in quick succession then they will be in position to stop New Zealand from chasing this target.

Pakistan was going to loss the match even though they got some success by picking quick wickets. The 9th wicket partnership was going to make it possible for New Zealand. But the run out of Ben Sears had changed the game again. He was looking into the ball instead of taking the single. The result of the match could have been different if Ben Sears didn't make the mistake.

[Sithara007]

Pakistan managed to draw the series 2-2, after winning the final match. It is still a moral victory for New Zealand. They were playing in hostile conditions, and some of their regular players were unavailable for the series. And given the way that the New Zealand players performed so far in this series, I would say that they have a really good chance of entering at least the semi-finals of the T20 World Cup, which is about to start in a couple of months. On the other hand, Pakistan team needs a comprehensive brain storming to analyze their weaknesses.

Shaheen's bowling is unbelievable, and nobody is saved from his Yorkers which is too much harmful for the batsmen because in just a bounce, the ball separates the whole of the stump, pitch, batsmen's feet, and stump bales. He had made two wickets with the help of his dangerous wickets that are too much and extraordinary harm, Virat Kohli, and Babar Azam types players are also afraid of these Yorkers.

Today he proved that when he has the mood to pick wickets then he can pick in 120km speed or 150km speed. It’s also depends on his mood whatever he wants to do  

[|MINER|]

What come back from Pakistan team I thought today New Zealand will be win and they will won this series but Shaheen afridi this man is the cause of there losing. And the series became draw. Anyway I would like to appreciate Pakistani team both line up batting and bowling, in case of batting Babar Azam once again proved he is the best player of Pakistan also mentioning fakhar zaman. And the bowler name I have already mentioned. I don't know why the New Zealand team getting out in the last match so quickly and this is the reason of their lost.

At the end almost Pakistan lost the match just because of Abbas Afridi because that time, he was giving the boundaries to New Zealand team as a gift, but I think that in that there was no mistake of him because he is not good for the depth overs and I am thinking that he could be good for ODI and Test because in T20Is, you know some pressure is exerted and after some time depth overs were started in which he is not likely to play and if he play then I think Babar Azam had to finish his overs under 14 overs.

Anyways, thanks to Shaheen Afridi who stood out in this match and took four wickets that helped the Pakistan team win this match. He was declared the player of the match as well as the player of the series too. He took 8 wickets total in this series.

[JahriMeayer]

Pakistan has won this 5th last T20 match by 9 runs Against new zeeland and the result is tied from both side (2-2) as because the 1st T20 match was end without any result due to rain. And Pakistan showed legendary performance in second match but afterward new Zealand won two match continuously. In this last match, Pakistan Scored total 178-5 runs where babar azam (65) did his half century as well as Fakhar Zaman(43) made good runs. On the other hand, New Zealand starting wasn't that much good. Lost 1st wicket 5 runs. Tim Seifert(52) did his half century, that's good but others players were struggling . Josh Clarkson (38) was doing good, and if they could hold their wickets then maybe they could win but Shaheen Afridi destroyed new Zealand Players by taking 4 wickets. Congrats Pakistan for winning

I was thinking that Pakistan will make a comeback in this match and will secure itself from big insult because Pakistan was playing in home ground. By the way match was really interesting. Especially the bowling of Shaheeh Shah Afridi and the batting of Babar Azam. We can see how Shaheen bowled he collected 4 wickets which I think a great achievement. So by winning this match the series is now finished with 2-2 equality.

Pakistan produced a competitive performance in the last T20 match which saw them win the match by nine runs against New Zealand. Yesterday's match may have been the biggest pressure on the Pakistan team as they had lost a couple of matches despite playing on their home ground. Despite playing at home, if Pakistan lost tomorrow's match, they would not have respect. Yesterday's match was like a final match for Pakistan as if Pakistan had lost yesterday's match they would have lost the T20 series to New Zealand.
Babar Azam batted well and Shahensha Afridi bowled well for Pakistan in the fifth T20 match, mainly these two contributed the most to Pakistan's win. Shahensha Afridi became Man of the Series due to his impeccable bowling performance in this T20 series between Pakistan and New Zealand.

[libert19]

Rajasthan should have lost yesterday to keep play-offs race interesting.

Anyway, we have double header Sunday. Have matches between fan favorite teams so should be a good crowd. First we have GT vs RCB, GT will want to win this one as this match is against relatively mediocre RCB, also GT can't afford to lose more than 1 in play-offs race, winning this one will give them some breathing space for next matches, as GT's next matches are against top teams like SRH/KKR and CSK.

Second is CSK vs SRH, this is top-tier competition and more exciting than former. SRH would want to dominate CSK at their home ground, because that's just Cummins thing.

It's gonna be a good Sunday.

[noormcs5]

NZ need 12 runs but remaining two batsmen got Run out and pakistan won this match by 9 runs. excellent performance by team new Zealand in this series and their new younger players gave tough time to Pakistan and they level the series by 2-2.

I think that this is wrong with Naseem Shah as he was able to play just two T20I matches and was not given a further chance. I know he played three but in the first, the rain  came so I am not considering that match.

The matches that was played by him was such a good performances matches by him and I think if Babar Azam tried the new bowlers in the fourth match of this series including rain match then in the last match that was played today, he should have to give chance to Naseem Shah because this match must be won by Pakistan. Yes they got victory but when Naseem could be there then for sure we might be able to see some easy victory for Pakistan.

Anyhow the playing XI including Babar, Afridi and Usama help Pakistan level series

Also when we see at wicket keepers, i think that Usman Khan is a better wicket keeper than as he is a batter because if you have seen that he made a huge dive to pick the catch in which he got the injury but still, he played very well as he have done keeping but that catch was not be able to pick to any wicket keeper.
I think that only Dhoni and Muhammad Rizwan can be able to pick that just because Dhoni is number 1 while Rizwan is spiderman or Super man whatever you want to say but that was not much extreme catch maybe it could be dropped by these both players MS Dhoni and Muhammad Rizwan.

Pakistan did not perform well in terms of bowling in this match but they performed well in terms of batting. And that was the appropriate reply, Shaheen Afridi gave the best bowling performance and Anand bowlers performed well. In the past matches, Pakistan team lost by a wide margin but in this match they managed to defeat the New Zealand team very easily, whenever the batting site was out of attack for the New Zealand team then the Pakistan team got more opportunities and the New Zealand team lost because of the fall of more wickets. And in the last minute the result of the game ended in 2-2 match, in general Pakistan team Babar Azam, Osman Khan, Fakhar Zaman these three batsmen have performed well in the field of batting.

The Player of the Match is Shaheen Afridi for his outstanding performance picked 4 important wickets by just giving 30 runs and helped Pakistan team to get the victory by the All out New Zealand team by 169 runs.

Pakistan played well in the yesterday match because they know that this match is really important for them. So they won that match. If we took a look on stats so we will see that first Babar Azam was good in batting he made 65 runs. Which helps Pakistan to make 178 runs. After that Pakistan bowlers show their power and they bowled really well especially Shaheen Shah Afridi and Usama Mir was good. Shaheen Shah Afridi Collected 4 wickets which help Pakistan to win this match. And now the series end and both teams won 2-2 match. Means the series tied.

Shaheen Shah Afridi did amazing bowling in last night's match at Gaddafi Stadium. If on his last over where he picked 1 or 2 wickets but if he was able to be out the batsmen in LBW where he convinced Babar Azam to take the review of LBW but after the review and before the review, the umpire decision was the same which was not out. Otherwise, if that ball could be out then he would have picked 5 wickets in this T20 but no problem because he also did very amazing bowling last night. Yesterday, Pakistan bowlers have done very good bowling and in which Shaheen Shah Afridi is one of the best and leading from the front.

in my opinion the series is not tied series was won by New Zealand because their B team is playing in Pakistan. New Zealand B-class team showed an outstanding performance in this series. Pakistan wins the last match due to the bowling performance of Shaheen Shah Afridi and Usama Mir. Muhammad Amir quite a costly spell in this Match gave to much runs but at the last over they successfully defended the 12 runs and Pakistan won by just a few runs. Pakistan needs to improve its batting performance if they perform well in the next T20 World Cup.

Fifth, if I think the role of victory is more important in this match then definitely Shaheen Afridi played one of the role in the victory. As the New Zealand team had a higher number of wins in the previous matches, the tie came in the fifth match and the first T20I match was postponed due to rain. Shaheen Afridi in particular brought down the attacking batting of the New Zealand team due to which the New Zealand team was all out in a very short time.

Rajasthan should have lost yesterday to keep play-offs race interesting.

Gujarati Titans team will have aggressive batting performance to win this match, because now performance will be against very weak team but next performances will be against very strong team it is right. Therefore, there will be a possibility of reaching the semi-final match by winning these matches of the present time. But on the other hand, even if Royal Challenger Bangalore team performs well in the end, it will not be possible for them to reach the quarter finals. Because their performance is very poor from the start but I think they will perform well enough to collect points.
