A never-before-seen incident took place during the second T20I between Pakistan and New Zealand at the Seddon Park in Hamilton on Sunday.

Fakhar hit Ben Sears for a massive six over deep backward square-leg and the ball ended up on the road. However, a fan took the ball and ran away with it. In the video, a couple of fans were seen chasing the ball after Fakhar's monstrous hit. A fan eventually eventually picked up the ball and ran away with it.

Josh Clarkson was omitted from the New Zealand squad for the third T20I against Pakistan due to a shoulder injury. The batter, uncapped at T20I level, was originally supposed to replace New Zealand captain Kane Williamson for the third T20I. The third T20I of the series will take place on January 17. Williamson will miss the third T20I of the series to manage the knee issue that has affected him for most of the last 12 months, before returning for the final two games. Now in Clarkson's stead, Will Young has been added to the Black Caps' squad.
