^^ All the required overs were bowled on days 1 to 4. At lunch on day 5 Pakistan were 125-5, & in command, in the middle session New Zealand went wicketless, & bowled just 25 overs. At 273-6 Pakistan looked on course to knock off 46 more runs, before 3 wickets fell which made New Zealand favourites, suddenly they showed more urgency, trying to complete the remaining overs in search of the final wicket. Teams definitely manipulate the overrate dependent on the match situation.

The manipulation point is a good one.
However I still think the match should have been completed.
There was jeopardy for both teams so I would have made them feel the self imposed stress right to the end

^ And in the end, relatively comfortable! Although the pitches in Pakistan are flat, at least this one was sufficiently testing, that NZ had to work to compile their target! Pakistan too were made to manage the chase, with few boundaries overall, and an approach where accumulation was crucial - a real contest! ODIs need more of these pitches (maybe a touch quicker elsewhere in the world) that ask the batsmen to produce their full range of skills, instead of being able to just play through the line with impunity! Obviously elsewhere also, bowlers will get more in the way of bounce and - one would hope - some lateral movement.

New Zealand innings fell away dramatically after Conway & Williamson had added 181 for the 2nd wicket, before Santner managed some late runs.
RE: Cricket Banter - Snooks - 12-01-2023 00:00
A match where both innings fell away very badly. Still, with it now being 1-1 in the series it sets things up very nicely.
