Seifert, Neesham Power New Zealand To 4-1 Series Win Over Pakistan
New Zealand: New Zealand wrapped up a 4-1 series win against Pakistan after securing an eight-wicket win in the fifth and final T20I here at Sky Stadium on Wednesday.
Riding on Jimmy Neesham's five-wicket haul, New Zealand restricted Pakistan to 128-9. In reply, Tim Seifert smashed an unbeaten 97 off 38 as New Zealand needed just ten overs to chase down the target.
Winning the toss and opting to field first, New Zealand’s bowlers immediately put Pakistan under pressure. Will O’Rourke and Jacob Duffy struck early, reducing the visitors to 24/3 within the powerplay. Pakistan’s innings never gained momentum, with Neesham wreaking havoc in the middle overs as his spell saw Pakistan slump to 52 for 5 at the halfway mark.
