NZ Vs PAK: Pakistan beat New Zealand by 9 wickets in the 3rd T20I at the Eden Park in Auckland on Friday, March 21 to keep the series alive. With the win, Pakistan have now registered the fastest-ever 200+ chase in T20I's, thanks to maiden international ton from Hasan Nawaz.

New Zealand were powered to 204 runs, thank to Mark Chapman, who missed out on his ton by 6 runs, as Pakistan had to produce a magical performance in-order to keep the series alive.

The Men in Green did what was needed off them, as they pulled off a historic chase by scoring 207 runs in 16 overs, at a loss of a solitary wicket.

One of the greatest chases you will ever see! 👏
