AUCKLAND: Shaheen Shah Afridi is back with his first over wicket. With an outstanding first-over effort, the eagle took flight and demonstrated his skill, taking a vital wicket to establish the tone for the game.
Afridi’s opening delivery rattled the New Zealand batting order in the eagerly awaited match at the cricket venue, sending the hosts down 1 for 1 after only four deliveries. The left-arm pacer’s deliveries proved to be too much for Devon Conway, the New Zealand batter, and the Pakistani squad got off to a great start.
