Pakistan Innings: Chasing a daunting target, Pakistan's top order struggled against disciplined Kiwi bowling.

However, the relentless pressure from New Zealand's bowlers, especially Mitchell Santner and Matt Henry, who took three wickets each, ensured Pakistan was bowled out for 252, falling short by 78 runs.
