New Zealand innings (target: 178 runs from 20 overs)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
RJ Nicol	b Shahid Afridi	33	29	28	3	1	117.85
6.4 61.7 mph, back of a length ball, skids on and bowled him trying to cut, always the most dangerous shot against Afridi and once again he gets a wicket with a quicker ball as the batsmans tries to hang back and wait for it, knocks out off stump 53/1
KS Williamson	run out (Nasir Jamshed/Mohammad Hafeez)	15	33	13	2	0	115.38
7.2 Mohammad Hafeez to BB McCullum, waited for the turn and tucked to short long leg, they go for the single but Williamson is struggling to the non-striker's end and doesn't get there, a sharp piece of work to get the throw in time back up the wicket, the bowler did well to gather and whips the bails off and it was before Williamson's dive 54/2
BB McCullum†	b Umar Gul	32	37	31	4	1	103.22
15.1 87.0 mph, nope, full and straight, dug out but it trickles back onto the stumps. Well bowled, a good yorker that McCullum dug out but it ran off his back foot I think which deflected it only leg stump, hard enough to remove the bail, unfortunate that 108/4
DL Vettori	c Nasir Jamshed b Saeed Ajmal	18	27	16	1	0	112.50
14.1 56.7 mph, step to leg and finds extra cover and Vettori's vigil is over, that wasn't very pleasant at all, and an ugly ending really, giving himself room, trying to go off side with a drive over the top but surprise surprise, it's not timed and flies straight to the fielder 102/3
JDP Oram	b Saeed Ajmal	11	13	7	2	0	157.14
16.2 56.0 mph, step to leg and a swing and miss and out goes leg stump. The spinner have been too good for the NZ batsman today, just a straight ball really, zipped through a little quicker off the pitch, Oram was aiming for Colombo on one knee and missed totally, losing his middle and leg stumps 122/5
LRPL Taylor*	run out (Umar Akmal/†Kamran Akmal)	26	21	11	3	1	236.36
18.4 from Umar Gul, slapped down to long off, they have to come back for two and do but it's a great throw from the boundary and Taylor is run out good work from Akmal to gather the throw and get the bails off, end of game surely now, he was never in the frame, run out by miles 157/7
JEC Franklin	c Nasir Jamshed b Sohail Tanvir	13	8	6	1	1	216.66
17.5 68.9 mph, length ball, slower, and finds deep midwicket, relief for Pakistan as Franklin goes to pull and top edges it straight to the fielder on the leg side fence, it was a ball that could have gone out of the ground but Franklin didn't quite pick it 143/6
NL McCullum	c Shoaib Malik b Saeed Ajmal	5	13	4	1	0	125.00
19.5 46.1 mph, slow ball, long hop outside leg, fired into the leg side, has this found the stands? Nope only finds deep square leg, it was a good ball to hit but he simply didn't catch it properly, put it straight down the fielder's throat 164/9
TG Southee	c Umar Gul b Saeed Ajmal	1	6	3	0	0	33.33
19.3 58.5 mph, outside off stump, swung outside off and an big edge to short third man took a step down, Ajmal sent it wider, Southee had to reach for it and got a huge top edge straight to the fielder on the 45 160/8
