0 Number of times New Zealand's Nos. 3 and 4 had both scored hundreds in the same ODI before this match. They had come closest to achieving this way back in 1994-95, when Adam Parore got out for 96 batting at No. 3, with Ken Rutherford getting his century at No. 4 against India.
93 Runs conceded by Bilawal Bhatti in this match; this equals the most any Pakistani bowler has conceded in an ODI. Wahab Riaz had also conceded 93 against South Africa in 2013.
15 Boundaries conceded by Bhatti in this match - the most any Pakistani bowler has conceded in an ODI since 2001. Five of those boundaries were sixes, which equals the most sixes any Pakistani bowler has conceded in ODIs since 2001.
