Finn Allen Fires NZ to Series Win Over Pakistan: New Zealand delivered a dominant performance at the Bay Oval in Mount Maunganui on Sunday, defeating Pakistan by 115 runs to take an unassailable 3-1 lead in the five-match T20I series. The hosts put on a commanding display with both bat and ball, outclassing the tourists in every department.

After being asked to bat first, New Zealand posted an imposing total of 220 for six in their 20 overs. The innings was powered by a blistering 20-ball half-century from Finn Allen, who set the tone early with his aggressive stroke play. Allen’s explosive knock included six boundaries and three sixes, providing the home side with a flying start. Tim Seifert continued the momentum with a quickfire 44 off just 20 balls, featuring three fours and four sixes, while Michael Bracewell remained unbeaten on 46 from 26 deliveries, adding vital runs in the latter stages of the innings.

Pakistan’s bowlers struggled to contain the onslaught, with Haris Rauf emerging as the pick of the attack. Rauf claimed three wickets for 27 runs in his four overs, while Abrar Ahmed chipped in with two wickets. However, the rest of the bowling unit failed to make significant inroads as New Zealand’s batters capitalized on a good batting surface.

In response, Pakistan’s chase never gained momentum as they were bundled out for a meager 105 in just 16.2 overs. Abdul Samad was the lone bright spot in an otherwise disappointing batting effort, top-scoring with a 30-ball 44, which included four fours and two sixes. The rest of the lineup faltered against a disciplined New Zealand bowling attack, with none of the other batters managing to cross the 20-run mark.

Jacob Duffy was the standout bowler for New Zealand, finishing with exceptional figures of four wickets for just 20 runs in his four overs. His incisive spell dismantled Pakistan’s top order and ensured there was no way back for the visitors. The supporting bowlers maintained the pressure, with tight lines and consistent wicket-taking deliveries, leaving Pakistan with no room to recover.

With this comprehensive victory, New Zealand secured the series ahead of the final match, scheduled for March 26 at the Sky Stadium in Wellington. The Black Caps will be aiming to end the series on a high, while Pakistan will look to salvage some pride in the concluding game. New Zealand’s dominant performance in this match underscored their strength in the T20 format and provided a glimpse of their preparations for future challenges.
