Asked to bat first, the Kiwis lost three wickets in a quick succession but Chapman and Daryl Mitchell's partnership brought them back into the game. Chapman scored 132 while Mitchell scored 76. Apart from them, debutant Muhammad Abbas scored 52 off 26 balls. For Pakistan, Irfan Khan scalped three wickets while Akif Javed and Haris Rauf scalped two wickets each. This is Pakistan's first 50-over game since the Champions Trophy 2025, where they were embarrassingly knocked out in the group stage. Pakistan were demolished 4-1 by New Zealand in the recently-concluded T20I series. (LIVE SCORECARD)
