The Pakistani bowlers needed just one more wicket, but they were unable to take it. When Daryl Mitchell got out, New Zealand needed 121 runs to win from 10 overs, at required run rate of more than 12 runs per over. Mark Chapman and James Neesham started smashing the Pakistani bowlers left, right and center from this point and apart from Imad Wasim all the other bowlers went for plenty. I have pointed this out many times in the past, but the absence of a quality spin bowler is still hurting Pakistan. Imad bowled well yesterday, but after all he is a part-timer.
When we see the results and the below picture sometime later in the future, we may say that the T20 series was drawn and the trophy was shared between the two captains but the fact is that I will consider this as a loss for the Pakistan team. They can't defend 190+ targets after getting some quick wickets is a serious question on their bowling performance.
