went back to a tossed up ball, then seemed to simply give some catching practice to Shoaib Malik at gully and Pakistan win by an innings and 324 runs"
Pakistan vs New Zealand, 1st Test at Lahore, May 01 2002 - Ball by Ball Commentary
This is the fifth highest margin test victory, NZ's worst loss and 5th worst as measured by innings rather than runs
Well expectedly the day started with New Zealand losing wickets quickly and Shoaib grabbed 2 more to end with 6 for 11 his best performance and is on a hat-trick in his next game
New Zealand had to follow on after their 2nd lowest total against Pakistan and the lowest at Lahore
Batting next it was a far more resolute display and Pakistan did miss Shoaib out with an ankle injury
Good batting by Richardson, Fleming and Vincnet with a fine 43 from Harris was not sufficient to prevent the loss
Kaneria was most effective as the wicket was taking some spin, giving him five for 110
This was a good performance for Pakistan to win a test at home after a bad spell recently
The next and final test of this series will be on 8th May at Karachi
We have some ceremonies cming up
Cermonies on and vip's introduced and Fleming called in to say, We messed about and had no penetration, gave runs too steadily and when we cam we were hit by accuracy and pace
Does not complain at all about the weather, wants to play better in Karachi, says his innings was nice and I got to spend soe time there, dismissed softly
Waqar on and says its great to break the 12 year drought at Lahore, thanks his team and Kaneria, says batting was good and pleased with Inz and Imran
Is happy with Inz's feat will think of team later for Karachi
The Man of the Match decision on Proctor, mentions Shoaib and selected Inzamam
Inz says he could sleep last night as he cannot believe he did get to 329, he said I still cannot believe it, is glad the team is batting well and says he will continue to try to play as best as he can
