New Zealand wins their first cricket match of the ODI series against Pakistan. Bowlers played a significant role in ending their losing streak. Tim Southee and Bennett are the main bowlers who troubled the Pakistan batmen with their swinging deliveries and Southee also grabbed five wickets while Bennett bagged three wickets in the cricket game.
Pakistan had won the test series against the black caps pretty convincingly but failed to show the same temperament in the first game of the series and their last series before the cricket World Cup of 2011. All the Pakistan batsmen failed to score runs except Misbah who was able to reach to his half century somehow. Pakistan would have to think about their present skipper Afridi who hasn’t been in good shape nor has showed any good captainship so far ahead of the cricket World Cup.
New Zealand is thrilled to grab the first game but there are still five more matches to go in the series to look forward to. Pakistan will have to concentrate on the upcoming games to get back in rhythm before the world cup and even New Zealand would be working hard in the camp to keep the momentum going.
