Pakistan gets first wicket against NZ in T20 World Cup
New Zealand has lost its first wicket against Pakistan.
Haris Rauf bowled opener Martin Guptill out in fifth over. NZ is continuing inning with 48 for one in 8 overs.
Eralier, New Zealand started their innings against Pakistan cautiously, losing no wickets but also respecting impressive bowling by left-arm pacer Shaheen Afridi and spinner Imad Wasim Tuesday.
Pakistan earlier won the toss and have elected to field first against New Zealand as the green shirts lock horns with the Black Caps today.
"We are going to bowl first," said skipper Babar Azam at the toss. "We will take early wickets and put pressure on them. The second reason is the dew factor [so the team may want to capitalise on it]," he said.
