†NEW ZEALAND v PAKISTAN 1984-85

At Hamilton, January 15. New Zealand won by four wickets with seven balls to spare. Pakistan gave a much better performance, despite starting diffidently, only 28 runs coming from their first fifteen overs. Then Miandad batted brilliantly on a slow pitch, taking runs readily from each bowler in turn. With slow-medium swing, and with the ball coming on to the bat very reluctantly, Coney took two for 16 from his ten overs. Wasim Raja kept Pakistan in the game with some economical medium-paced bowling, but the Crowes and Coney eventually took control.

Man of the Match: Javed Miandad.
