Pakistan once again lost to New Zealand by 73 runs in a match they looked like favourites to win on many occasions. When Pakistan had New Zealand at a low score with low run rate a 98 for 3 in 24 overs from then on Pakistan should have restricted New Zealand to a low total. In batting when Pakistan were 246 for 3 in 37 th over they should have won the match and chased the total of 344 runs.
Mark Chapman seems to like Pakistani bowling as he more often than not likes to score against Pakistan. He scored a match winning century against Pakistan in this match as well. Babar Azam after being a set batsman at 78 runs should have carried on to win this match for Pakistan which he didnt and this resulted in a collapse with Pakistan having a long line of tailenders in this ODI.
In the end what I would like to say is that Pakistan is talented enough to win atleast one match in the remaining two ODIs in the series.
Pakistan, definitely is a promising team.
