New Zealand won by 7 wickets
27.3 Umar Gul to Cairns, FOUR, short, pulls it in style infront of
square to the legside
A good win for New Zealand chasing 117 but after a torrid time at
the hands of Shoaib Akhtar et al.
Shoaib tried hard but it was Umar Gul and Abdul Razzaq who got the
3 wickets that fell
New Zealand batters kept their cool and kept scoring singles
whenever possible with a few chances dropped.
Pakistan had not batted well earlier with the ball seaming,
swinging and bouncing on a wicket that most felt was not suitable
for ODI's.
We should have a few presentations next in this short match and
please remember on tuesday at 04:00GMT we shall have the final
game to be played at Dambulla between Sri Lanka and New Zealand
then they move down to Comombo for round 2
Presentations on and we have some awards
Most boundary award for 4 fours to Nevin
Best batter was Vincent
Tuffey is the Man of the Match
Thats all folk and we look forward to Tuesdays game between Sri
Lanka and New Zealand
27.2 Umar Gul to Cairns, no run, defended to cover
