Misbah inspires Pakistan ‘A’ in Twenty20
DARWIN, July 9: Captain Misbahul Haq scored 107 not out on Sunday to lead Pakistan ‘A’ to a 60-run win over New Zealand ‘A’ in a Twenty20 international of the Top End Cricket Series.
Later on Sunday, Australia ‘A’ claimed a 16-run win to deal New Zealand ‘A’ its second Twenty20 defeat.
Pakistan made 164 for five batting first and New Zealand was bowled out for 104 in 16.4 overs in reply.
Three run outs hastened New Zealand's dismissal and consigned it to its first loss of the series after an imposing eight wicket win over Australia ‘A’ in a 50-overs match last Tuesday.
Australia scored 160 for nine and bowled New Zealand out in the final over for 144.
Brett Dorey took three wickets for 25 runs and Shane Watson three for 30.—AP
