Wellington captain Nick Kelly and Troy Johnson have taken the internet by storm by pulling off a never-before-seen catch during their Super Smash match against Central Districts on Saturday. New Zealand and Central Districts opener Will Young played a lofted shot towards long-on. Kelly, who was deployed at mid-on, made a desperate run backwards before catching the ball. As he was about to touch the rope while diving forward, Kelly showed great awareness to throw the ball back towards Johnson, who was making his way towards the boundary from long-off.
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.

The run chase was a procession, with captain Najmul Hossain Shanto scoring an unbeaten half-century as they coasted to 99-1 in 15.1 overs.
