Pak Vs NZ 2025 – ODI Series
In the 3rd ODI match, New Zealand secured a convincing 43-run victory over Pakistan. The Kiwis put up a competitive total of 264 runs and backed it up with disciplined bowling. The skipper, Michael Bracewell was named Man of the Match for his solid half-century that anchored New Zealand’s innings and an incredible display of bowling yielding one crucial wicket of Faheem Ashraf. Pakistan’s batting line-up faltered once again, unable to chase down the target with intent. It was a disappointing display from Pakistan, lacking both strategy and execution in a crucial game.
With this win, the New Zealand cricket team whitewashed the green team by 3-0. This is a matter of grave concern for PCB as the kiwi team were able to fully dominate them in all three matches, even in the absence of their key players like Glenn Phillips, Mitchell Santner, and Kane Williamson. The Pakistan team’s consistency failed to level up their batting or bowling order. Ben Sears was awarded with the player of the series award for incredible bowling display. In the third game, the youngster took a fiver for 34 runs.
