New Zealand defeated Pakistan by 79 runs on Wednesday, to win the second One-Day International (ODI) and level the three-match series 1-1.
Pakistan’s captain Babar Azam was the lone warrior as he completed his 24th ODI half-century and top scored with 79 runs, whereas wickets kept falling from the other end.
Pakistan lost both openers, Imam-ul-Haq and Fakhar Zaman early. But then Babar Azam and Muhammad Rizwan had a partnership of 55 runs for the third wicket.
