Right! Fine performance by the Kiwis. They next take on Canada on March 13. Pakistan, who lost their first game of the tournament, have a lot of thinking to do as they take on Zimbabwe at this very same venue on March 14. That's it from us then! Thanks a lot for tuning in to our coverage and looking forward for your company tomorrow at 0900 GMT (1430 IST), as the Dutch take on India at Delhi. Good Bye! Take Care! Adios!.
Victorious stand-in captain ROSS TAYLOR HAS BEEN NAMED THE MAN-OF-THE-MATCH. Says that having Pakistan 6 down inside 20 overs was a great achievement for the bowlers. Admits that during the Razzaq-Gul stand, the bowlers found it hard to grab the ball due to the dew. About his innings, he says that he was struggling, but Nathan McCullum and Jacob Oram showed him the way, easing off the pressure. About winning against a big team today, he says that it displays the character of the side as they needed to step up today which they did. About the injury to Daniel Vettori, he says that it is too early to say as of now and will await reports. Adds that Dan is a great player and the team needs him..
Pakistan skipper BOOM BOOM Shahid Afridi says that he does not have any excuse for this performance. They did not bowl or field well but is confident that the team will not repeat such a performance. Admits that if they keep giving chances to any player, it will prove costly. Says that the team should learn from their mistakes and perform better against Zimbabwe..
Tim Southee feels that Taylor's innings was one of those one can only dream of having. The team was looking for 245 but got over 300, thanks to him. Says that the ball was swinging in the initial overs under the lights and apart from the disappointing partnership towards the end between Razzaq and Gul, the bowlers bowled well. Says that such a win improves the team's confidence. Admits that there was much more dew than the side expected..
Solid performance by the Kiwis. Taylor demolished the Pakistan bowlers single-handedly but the Kiwi bowling was a team effort. Mills and Southee ripped through the top order while the others contributed too. The Razzaq-Gul partnership was the only noteworthy stand as Pakistan crashed to 192, with Razzaq making 62. Southee took 3 wickets..
