Highlights: Pakistan vs New Zealand, 9th Match, Group D, T20 World Cup 2012

Team Pakistan have clinched a thriller! They beat New Zealand by 13 runs. Ajmal grabs 4 wickets. If Group D -- with Pakistan, New Zealand and Bangladesh -- was the death zone, then Brendon McCullum has emerged the big hunter here. And after his blistering batting against Bangladesh, all eyes were on him to in this run chase. He did manage to strike a few blows, but his 31-ball 32 wasn't enough to see the Kiwis through.


With a thumping win in their last match, the Kiwis were almost on their way to the Super 8 stage. But, still, uncertainty is the name of this game. Because, Bangladesh can always cause an upset and no one would want to take a chance on this one. Now, all eyes will be on the Bangladesh-Pakistan match.



PAK 177/6 (20) Hafeez 43 | Nasir 56 | Southee 2-31
NZ 164/9 (20) Nicol 33 | McCullum 32 | S Ajmal 4-30
