In Search of Incredible
Surprisingly, Pakistan won the match after a poor display of bowling. How often do you see a team lose a match like this after scoring 400+ runs? The match result could have been different if the rain hadn't interrupted the play.
I'm not surprised with the performance of Pakistan as it was a batting friendly pitch. But it would have been very difficult for them to chase the 402 runs target. The batting lineup could have collapsed at any time. Fakhar Zaman has played an impressive innings today. Babar Azam and Fakhar Zaman played without fear even though the target was big. Which has played an important role in the victory.

Pakistan got really lucky thanks to rain interference since it would have been difficult for them to win even though Zaman was on fire thanks to the crazy target. New Zealand bowlers messed up as usual excluding Southee.

Also, it looks like Australia are about to win without Maxwell and Marsh and almost sealed their semifinal spot thanks to England collapsing once again.

The match result could have been different if the rain hadn't interrupted the play. That Sodhi over-changed the game for NZ. Pakistan won by 21 runs, and they scored 20 in the final over. Fakhar's batting was top-notch; what a clean hitter of the ball. Initially, I thought he might struggle against spin, but he took spinners to the cleaners. Credit to Pakistan because they played with positive intent and did not get pressured by the asking rate and target.

Play between Pakistan and NZ has resumed and target has been reduced to 342 in 41 overs. Pakistan now need 182 runs in 19.3 overs with 9 wickets in hands. Rain has somewhat helped Pakistan as they now have to play fewer overs with 9 wickets in hands. The game is still on for both sides. From NZ perspective they need to get rid of Zaman as quickly as possible otherwise game may drift away from them.

Fakhar Zaman has the most important role behind the victory of Pakistan team. Because he hit a six in the last overs, this is where the tide of the game turned completely. Because of which the number of overs also decreased due to the suspension of play due to rain and the run rate was higher than the New Zealand team from the beginning. Due to which Pakistan won today, but there were enough wickets in hand, due to which the captain of the Pakistan team did not have to worry about the wicket. Pakistan team can win the competition with New Zealand team has finished fifth place in the points table and Pakistan team has a good chance to go to the qualifier match.

Not sure , how can you say that New Zealand will win this match when the Pakistan batsmen are playing even better?  Fakhar Zaman unbeaten at 126 from only 81 balls while Babar Azam playing at 66 with almost run a ball pace.

The rain has interrupted the match again but once again Pakistan are 21 runs ahead in DLS. I checked the Cricinfo to get the latest information because the sports channel has started showing other match between Australia and England. From Cricinfo sources, the rain is heavy and we don't have much time to resume the match.

If the play did not resume, how unfortunate it will be for NZ that after making 400+ runs, they have to be on the losing side.
I think the rain become blessing for Pakistan team. Fakhar zaman and Babar Azam still playing on the pitch. What the hack match already done due to the rain . And it's seems pakistan won the match by 23 run with the  dls method. I am feeling bad for New Zealand team that they are also did a great performance today especially from the side batting. I think New Zealand fans are also will be very disappointed for this DLS method. Anyway Pakistan team also did well batting that is why they on this match but sad for the New Zealand team.
Pakistan won by 21 runs (DLS method). Congratulations to Team Pakistan for their must-win match against New Zealand, earning two points as the game was called off. Pakistan's incredible batting performance truly deserved this victory. They were well ahead of New Zealand, and it was a delight to watch the powerful hitting from Fakhar Zaman and Babar Azam. This victory can be attributed mainly to Fakhar Zaman's performance.
No doubt in last two games he is playing his natural game and having 87 and now 131 which is really impressive even Pakistan still much behind in NRR but fans at home feeling happy because many were saying openly Pakistan is not going to win against New Zealand and keep dreaming about this win but these guys done.
402 was massive target, but their aggressive start with Babar was also in good touch this give them this win even after today their bowlers concede massive runs on this batting heaven pitch now their next target is England which is currently doing good against Australia for their second win in this event.

Don't know why ESPN Cricinfo has put a sad sign after writing COVERS ARE BACK ON ?

This could go right down to the wire, but I still feel the Kiwis will win thanks to their amazing batting performances.

In the match between Australia and England, the latter won the toss and chose to field first. Australian start was not very impressive, and they lost both of their openers inside the power play. Smith and Labuschagne's partnership stabilises the Australian batting lineup. After 40 overs, Australia is 220/5. The last powerplay is about to start, and they have set batters at the crease. Both the batsmen have the ability to take the game away from the opposition. England needs a tight death bowling to have a fighting chance in this match.
Cameron Green is out while I was writing this analysis. Not a good start to the last 10 overs.
36 th match is playing and this match is going to end and first batting inning of Australia squad has ended and they played 49.5 overs and made 285 scores. Australia squad got out al their wickets at the end ball of last over. If we look at their target scores which is not bad just a normal scores. But performance of England in previous match was disappointed and played very bad. That's why their squad is at bottom number in standings table and they lose five matches. After a few minutes, England batting inning will be alived and I choose Australia squad in today match who will get this victory.

Pakistan team is batting brilliantly from the beginning to meet the target of 402 runs today, compared to the other day's match, Pakistan batsmen's hit mood today. Fakhar Zaman's brilliant batting against New Zealand today was a truly impressive 106 off 69 balls. On the other hand, Babar Azam is in great form and the partnership of these two could have produced a good score if it had lasted this long. But unfortunately due to bad weather the Pakistan team is still outside the field and the match is postponed till the rain ends the match does not start. Having collected 160 runs in 21.3 overs with the loss of 1 wicket, they need just 242 runs to go. However, after the rain ends, maybe the overs will be reduced in the DL system, then it will be understood which team will have more chances to win.
It is true that the Pakistan team played brilliantly from the beginning of their batting started. But I think due to the poor performance of Pakistani bowlers, this much good batting performance will not work. Babar Azam and Fakhar Zaman are both performing well. Fakhar Zaman has already brought up a century that too at a strike rate above 150. However, Pakistan's batting pace needs to increase more, because the required run rate is still above 9.30 and their current run rate is around 7.4. So I think New Zealand will win, also Pakistan batting line-up is not as strong as New Zealand. If few batsmen in Pakistani top order are out then I think Pakistan's chances of winning will decrease.

I disagree. I feel that rain helped New Zealand here since Pakistan had a shit-ton of momentum thanks to Zaman which suddenly got halted and they are under a lot of pressure to score so many runs in so few overs.

This could go right down to the wire, but I still feel the Kiwis will win thanks to their amazing batting performances.

In the match between Pakistan and New Zealand, after the rain pause, the revised target for Pakistan is 342 in 41 overs. Now Pakistan need another 182 runs in 19.3 overs to win this match. With only one wicket down, this is the ideal chance for Pakistan to chase this total down. From here on, it is a T20 game, and they have plenty of batting left.

In the other game, Australia bowled out at 286, an economical bowling performance from England in death overs. Australian Tail added valuable runs to their total after the sudden collapse. This is a chasable target for England, but looking at their form, one can not predict the outcome of this game at the moment.

Fakhar Zaman scored Hundred from just 63 balls while chasing 402 runs against New Zealand. This will go down as one of the greatest knocks ever in World Cup history. Breathtaking attacking batting from Fakhar Zaman. The fastest ever hundred for Pakistan in ODI World Cups. And 5th fastest overall. What a knock. Phenomenal. Fakhar Zaman is the first Pakistan batter to hit 9 sixes in a World Cup match
What an excellent batting ny Fakhar Zaman. He made his century on 63 balls. He hit 9 sixes. And 7 fours. And that was a fast century. But unfortunately there is rain. And match delayed due to rain so now no one can say anything. But Fakhar Zaman was on fire at that time after stopping rain what will he do no one knows about that. So let's hope the rain will stop and Pakistan will win today match. Just waiting.

On the other hand. Australia made 227 runs in 42 overs and lost 6 wickets. And I think they will go approximately near 280 runs. And I think England will try to its best to win this match.
Fakhar Zaman 100 of 63 balls on his hitting mood is the best thing that happened to Pakistan so far in world cup. Extraordinary batting, and he's not letting Pakistan semi-final dreams fade away so easily. Babar Azam right now 47*(51) while chasing down 400+ for the first time in ODI in world cup history. If Rain not stopped and 10 overs are lost, Pakistan will need 175 further in 18.3 overs. If 20 overs are lost, Pakistan will need 92 further in 8.3 overs and If 25 overs are lost Pakistan will need 37 further in 3.3 overs.

Match between Pakistan and NZ has been stopped due to rain and its Pakistan who loving this rain. As per DLS, Pakistan is 10 runs ahead of par score and if there is no match due to rain then Pakistan will be winner. Its mainly due to blistering knock of Fakhar zaman 106(69) that Pakistan are in a position to win the game. Time is passing and we might even have game with less number of overs which is also what Pakistan must want at the moment.
