New Zealand vs Pakistan Highlights – Super 8s
NZ Bat
Pak Bat
Watch cricket highlights – New Zealand vs Pakistan from the Super 8s of the 2009 T20 Cricket World Cup.
Scoreline: NZ 99 all out Scott Styris 22 – Umar Gul 3-6-5, Abdul Razzaq 3.3-1-17-2, Afridi 4-17-1
Pakistan take 13.1 overs: Shahzaib Hasan 35 (28), Shahid Afridi 29 n.o. – Vettori 4-20-2
So Razzaq walks into the team, doesn’t impact the game the way Shoaib Akhtar did in the IPL, but gets a wicket in his very 1st over – all those nipping-back deliveries that have troubled the best were spot on from ball 1, and though his team may have been charged up for the occasion anyway, his arrival has already stirred things up. The day however belonged to Umar Gul with ridiculous figures of 5 for 6 in just 3 overs – similar in impact to what his colleague Tanvir did in the IPL. Tanvir’s WC campaign unfortunately seems over – that horrible 1st over in the game vs SL overshadowing some seriously good deliveries whenever a legal delivery was bowled. He also looked to be having some fitness issues midway through the game vs Netherlands. Deserved spell for Gul who for some time now has been Pakistan’s most consistent and dependable bowler.
Hasan played the warm-up vs India and looked a tad nervous, but today, yet another young attacking opener from Pakistan seems to have emerged. It’s too early I suppose to judge his future considering the long list of seriously talented players who’ve kind of faded away – Imran Nazir, the Farhat brothers, Basit Ali, Yasir Hameed.
Shahid Afridi had a super day out first with the ball and then just when NZ found a way to open up a flurry of wickets, Afridi donned the calming role, nudging singles and twos. Who’d have thought.
Pregame: All buzz is about the proposed reentry of Razzaq into international cricket. Easily one of the Top 3 allrounders of his era when he was around, how cricket-friendly he is at the moment is not sure. As many have commented on the site, Imran Nazir too would have been a welcome member along perhaps with the Farhat brothers. For NZ, the Cup is just a few games away (in my world), if. If at least Taylor can return as soon as possible. But yeah, the loss of Ryder and absence of Vettori has made it a little harder. But McCullum is pretty due.
Just to rant on a little longer about Razzaq, the last time a stunning reentry to cricket happened was when Shawbshank Redemption occurred. However, the circumstances were a little different. The management was filmi, Akhtar is that sort of a guy and Ganguly was captain. How wanted Razzaq is made to feel will be the key as Younis doesn’t seem an Imran Khan by any stretch of imagination. But considering how Razzaq has always come across as an aloof sort of character, maybe all he needs is Abdul talking to him. So yeah, the most unpredictable moment of this tournament looms right ahead of us.

Pakaistan ZINDA ABAD for ever
Congrats to pakistan. They played very well today. But Mr “welldone by pakistan” chill. Your team has a long way to go still. We still will cheer for Bravo when he plays in the IPL. Will you cheer for him if he played for the PPL if it existed. Cheers and enjoy the win.
It should be pak s India in final, then only it’s good…
sigh.. t20 really needs to find some professional commentators instead of retired players etc -_-
Commentators are so boring :\
What a win for Pak. Umar gul did an amazing job today by taking 5 nz wkts for just 6 runs. AR also made a very good come back. I hope our batting and fielding gets better before its too late. Pakistan, zinda baad
lol this was a lame win to be honost winning against poor teams don’t show anything… to be honost if pak would have played first i highly doubt they would make more then 120 to 140 mark they way they chased the target of 99 runs lolzzz
so they still need ot so lots of hard work on chasing the runs and getting their openers sort out if they want to win the t20 cup this time i am sure misba wont be there to bale em out.
thogh lame win in my eyes as i am a proud paki still shame on them to lose 5 wickets to achieve 99 runs f**ken ppl had 120 balls could have ben taking singles or 2s for god sake… yunis should have come in to open since he likes so much singles n 2s lol
gl to pak
Its going to be South Africa v/s Sri-Lanka or South Africa v/s West Indies this year.
C’mon bro, face 2 da reallity…Pakistan can make the semifinal if SriLanka win against Newzealand…else Newzealand and SriLanka will b remain in the top 2 teams in the group F.So, if u want 2 go 4 finals hav 2 cheer 2 SriLanka…But If SriLanka went 2 Finals then again Pakistan gonna b runnersup nywaz…
who said that my friend? .. pak’s run rate is much much better thn that of newzealand..even if srilanka lose to newzealanad, i dont think it’ll b a big win for the kiwis coz srilanka is playing very well..so pak will go through on run rate after defeating ireland
hahaha
OR srilanka might lose to both ireland n newzealnad n then ofcourse pak n newzealand will go through
i always the love of cricket because cricket is my live my heart
pakistan is one of team who handal the situation all the time and winnig team any tournamentsd
Pakistan can win the cup if Sri-Lanka had not participated in the competition.
love pakistan baby:D
PAKIS-RULEZ..are you stupid or what? Lame win? Pakistan made history against New Zealand, along with Shahid Afridi taking one of the best catches of the tournament. If you still think this was a lame win, you are completely mentally retarded. If you don’t know the situation or don’t have anything positive to say, then shut the hell up. Ignorant dumbwit.
On the other side. Great work Pakistan team and hope you guys win the t20 cup. =]
PAKIS-RULEZ : and btw Pakistan lost 4 wickets to reach the target, not 5..further shows how much you know about the situation.
indianfan i hpe so u were enjoying when u read my comments.i m chilling out with t20.
enjoy rest of the tournament t20 not IPL bcz IPL is existing but use less if ur team cant go to semi.
i hpe so u would take is serious chillout mate.I enjoy cricket whatever nationality is playing but i love my pakistan but i have got sports man spirit. i watch cricket as game and excitment. win or lose is part of the cricket.
Insha_allah pakistan win T20 World Cup 2009.
Salam to all
please be positive and pray for Sri Lanka 2 win against the N.Z so that they will be knocked out and Pak can easily get to the semi’s, otherwise Pak have to win against Ireland with a good run-rate and INSHAALLAH they will do it. i hope to meet India in Semi’s. Cheers
Hey, some one just said that paki can make it to semiz only if SRI beats NZ. Nah guyz!! paki has made it to semiz. If NZ loses the next match then paki certainly in. If NZ crushes SRI then the Run Rate ov SRi which is already below paki will further b lowered.Hahaha! Bt the prob is that, paki, the unpredictable team has to defeat Ireland!!! N i hope they do it convincingly!!! PRAY GUYZZZ!!! I c the cup coming home!! hehehe!! BTW the team that paki played in NZ match iz the best one possible!!
I think the best side 20-20 side in the world is India, however South Africa have the most chance of winning this cup… pakistan might play semis… they need to bring back imran nazir and rana naved…
hey guys use ur brains Sri lanka is the winner and havent beaten yet and secured da top points and if pakistan can beat Kiwis wot do u think Sri lanka cant?guys Sri lanka will be the 2009 champs whoever comes to final with Sri lanka and now da good thing is even Mahela on form so we are on fire…East or West Sri lanka is the best…
dilan….i can only say HAHAHA..this is not 96 worldcup
u played well we appreciate but i guess thats enough..so well done n bye…
PAKISTAN FOR LIFE!!
Well.
Its a great victory for pakistan.
Why?
You know better.
Abdulrazzaq was bring back,in order to play positively.
he tried but couldn’t do.
its ok We always pray.
PAAKISTAAN ZINDABAD.
