Batting first after losing the toss, New Zealand made the most of the home conditions to post a daunting 205-run total. Mark Chapman was the star for the hosts, scoring 94 runs from 44 balls.

However, youngster Nawaz, who made his T20I debut in this series, did not show any signs of stopping, hitting 10 boundaries and seven sixes across the field to bring up the fastest T20I century for Pakistan. He finished the match with 105 runs from 45 balls.

With his ton, Nawaz also overtook Babar Azam라이브 바카라 previous record of a 49-ball century, which he scored against South Africa in 2021.

Other than this personal feat, Nawaz라이브 바카라 knock and his partnership with Salman Agha, who secured a half-century for himself (51 runs from 31 balls), helped propel Pakistan towards their first win in their tour of New Zealand.

After losing to the Kiwis in the first two matches by five and nine wickets respectively, such a dominant win in Friday라이브 바카라 match will not only keep Pakistan라이브 바카라 hopes in the T20I series alive but also help them prepare for the upcoming two games.
