Umar Gul become best choice for bowling coach
Pakistan are looking to appoint a bowling coach. Several candidates have emerged...
PAK vs NZ: On Monday, Pakistan won the toss and elected to bowl first against New Zealand at the National Bank Cricket Arena in Karachi.
During the match, Pakistan’s leg-spinner Usama Mir and New Zealand’s pacer Henry Shipley make their ODI debuts.
The last time these two sides met was in the 2019 edition of the 50-over World Cup, when Pakistan won by six wickets thanks to Babar Azam’s superb unbeaten century in Birmingham.
Their previous bilateral series (in the UAE in 2018) ended in a tie after the final match was rained out.
