    England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    Jimmy Neesham's smile says 'I can't believe you've just done that!'

  2. Aatif Nawaz
    BBC Test Match Special

    That's his first ball of the tournament and it's gone for six! What an entry!

  3. 6 runs

    Pak 54-2

    Mohammad Hafeez faces his first ball...

    ...and wallops it into the stands for six!

  4. Mohammad Hafeez, owner of the greatest 'tash in cricket, is the new batter.

  5. Aatif Nawaz
    BBC Test Match Special

    An excellent review! What a time to strike. Pakistan were in cruise control.

    WICKET

    Fakhar lbw Sodhi 11 (Pak 47-2)

    Well what do you know?!

    Pad first and that ball is going on to hit the top of middle stump. SIlence around the stadium once again!

  7. Oh no, it's pad first!

  8. I'm fairly sure he's smashed this...

  9. Alex Hartley
    England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    It just didn't look out to me.

  10. New Zealand review

    Now then...

    Big shout for lbw against Fakhar Zaman, the umpire says no, there's overthrows, and New Zealand send it upstairs.

  11. 6 runs

    Pak 45-1

    Massive!

    Fakhar Zaman desposits Ish Sodhi's third ball onto the roof!

  12. Aatif Nawaz
    BBC Test Match Special

    Something's bubbling. A big shot is coming.

  13. Ish Sodhi is going to bowl some leg-breaks.

  14. Aatif Nawaz
    BBC Test Match Special

    That's... different.

  15. Alex Hartley
    England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    In age-group cricket we used to say 'Big swing, no ping' when that happened.

  16. Pak 39-1

    Need 9runs from 72 balls

    Fakhar Zaman charges at Jimmy Neesham and misses the ball by an absolute mile, but the ball zips past the stumps rather than into them.

  17. Jimmy Neesham is coming in to the attack.

  18. Henry Moeran
    BBC Test Match Special

    In international T20s this year, prior to this tournament, Mohammad Rizwan's batting stats are: 752 runs, an average of 94 and at a strike rate of 140.

  19. Carlos Brathwaite
    West Indies all-rounder on BBC Test Match Special

    Any opportunity to score, Rizwan will take it. Santner just bowled too full.

    But these are two brilliant bowlers on for New Zealand so it's an important passage of play.

  20. Pak 36-1

    Target 135

    Drifting down the leg side from Mitchell Santner, and Mohammad Rizwan is more than happy to tickle it down to the boundary.
