Pakistan cricket team set an unwanted record with a 115-run loss to New Zealand in the fourth PAK vs NZ T20I at Mount Maunganui’s Bay Oval on Sunday.
The hosts held the five-match series 3-1 after bowling out the Men in Green for 105 runs as they were chasing a scary total of 221.
The 115-run defeat striking the Pakistan cricket team’s biggest in terms of runs in T2O internationals, beyond their previous record for a 95-run defeat in 2016.
The national side’s previous record for the biggest defeat was also against a PAK vs NZ game in Wellington.
On the other hand, the winning boundary was New Zealand’s second-highest in terms of runs.
Their highest winning boundary was 118 runs against the West Indies in 2018 at the same Bay Oval venue.
It is to be well-known here that Pakistan agonized a crushing defeat after they were bundled out for 105 against New Zealand in the fourth PAK vs NZ T20I.
New Zealand mailed a mammoth 221-run target against Pakistan after they were put to bat first.
In reaction, the Pakistan cricket team only achieved to score 105 runs before they were hurried out in 16.2 overs.
Just two batters reached double-digit scores, with Abdul Samad, who scored 44 runs while Irfan Khan scored 26.
