ICC Cricket World Cup 3rd Warm-up Match b/w Pakistan & New Zealand .

 

Pakistan Won the toss and decided to bat first.

That's a good strategy of caption that whenever you go on a new pitch took first bat . May be I'm right or could be wrong 😊 .

Pakistan Score Flow  First Inning :

The openers Abdullah Shafique and Imam-ul-haq came on pitch . Their partnership didn't goes long and Imam-ul-haq goes on 1 run on 10 balls by Matt henry , catched by Tom latham.

Babar get one another fifty as usual and scored total of 80 on just 84 balls and were dissmissle by Mitchell santner and catched by Daryl mitchell.A wonderful inning for babar and it's a reply for such a haters that  are in misconception that Babar is not a Legend . He's will be always a Legend , Insha-Allah.

On another side Rizwan not coming . He saw that my partner get 80 , so i will fulfill his objective of hundred so Rizwan hit 103 on just 94 balls and sadly hurt retired . It's the good signal of being in form for our heroes and for pakistan.

And with this Pakistan lose the first warm-up match against New Zealand . But it was a great experience for Pakistan on pitches of India and they now knows a little bit that how to play in India and overall every player did their best but our bowling is little bit slow and not wicket taking in middle . And we also loss Naseem shah so our bowling line up is little weak but thegood thing is that our batsman is now in the form . It is a good sign of winning WC 2023 and many many prayers , good wells for PCT .
