10.50pm A shoddy batting display from Pakistan, to say the least, save Sharjeel Khan. A blistering start from Sharjeel but Pakistan have ended in a disastrous whimper. New Zealand weren't sensational with the ball, frequent and regular loose deliveries, but were good in the field and field placements and stuck to the basics

Milne to Sarfraz Ahmed, 1 run, another full toss on middle and leg, not sure what more you can ask for. Sarfraz mows to midwicket for a run. New Zealand have qualified for the semis in the process
 

Shoddy batting display

 
19.5
Milne to Shoaib Malik, 1 run, speared in the blockhole on middle, driven to long-on. What an anti-climax

19.4
Milne to Shoaib Malik, 2 runs, a legcutter on off and middle, slapped to point for a couple.
 

Tim: "no boundary since last 5.2 overs. So disappointing."

 
19.3
Milne to Shoaib Malik, no run, a slower delivery outside off, Malik is through the shot and misses.
19.2
Milne to Sarfraz Ahmed, 1 run, another full toss on middle and leg, bunted to cover. Looked like it was over the waist.
19.1
Milne to Sarfraz Ahmed, 2 runs, a low full toss on leg, pushed down to long-on, just the two. Amazing how Pakistan have failed to find the boundary
 

The last over. Milne will finish.

 
End of over 19 (9 runs) Pakistan 151/5 (30 runs
