Pakistan beats New Zealand by 103 runs in 3rd T20

Shahid Afridi signals the
 end of Scott Styris' innings

Pakistan 183 for 6 (Shehzad 54, Razzaq 34*, Franklin 2-12) beat New Zealand 80 (Styris 45, Afridi 4-14, Razzaq 3-13) by 103 runs
Pakistan on Thursday, cruised to victory in the third and final Twenty20 international against New Zealand at Christchurch by 103 run. Pakistan opener Ahmed Shehzad's 54 off 34 balls helped his side reach 183 for six as they sought to salvage some pride.
Man of The Match Abdul Razzaq, who hit a superb 34-run cameo, then took figures of three for 13 and
skipper Shahid Afridi picked up four for 14 as Pakistan bowled out their opponents for just 80 to record their biggest victory in T20 cricket.New Zealand were never in with a shout of getting the required runs, with their top four batsmen all dismissed for ducks.

Afridi himself claimed four scalps during the second-inning wicket frenzy, but insisted Razzaq was the architect of their morale-boosting win.

"He's a matchwinner, I've always seen him as one," Afridi said. "In the past there have been some games where victory looked unlikely, but he was able to see us through."
