    The Black Caps have raced to a 1-nil lead over Pakistan in their five-match T20 series with a commanding nine-wicket win in Christchurch

    The Black Caps have raced to a 1-nil lead over Pakistan in their five-match T20 series with a commanding nine-wicket win in Christchurch


    Kyle Jamieson and Jacob Duffy destroyed the Pakistan batting order, rolling them for 91.

    Jamieson took figures of three for eight while Duffy clinched four wickets.

    In reply, New Zealand wasted little time in their run-chase with Tim Seifert blasting a quickfire 44 off 29 balls.

    Stand-in captain Michael Bracewell has told TVNZ it's a dream result.



    Game two is on Tuesday in Dunedin, when the White Ferns will also meet Sri Lanka to decide their series.
