After humiliating the Australians, Pakistan is taking on New Zealand in the first Test of three match Test series. Pakistan, who batted after winning the toss, closed the opening day of the first Test against New Zealand on 269-1 in Abu Dhabi on Sunday.
Ahmed Shehzad was unbeaten on 126 for his third century but Mohammad Hafeez missed his hundred by four runs as Pakistan punished New Zealand bowlers on a flat Sheikh Zayed Stadium pitch. At close of day’s play Azhar Ali was 46 not out. Pakistan kept the same XI they played during their 356-run win against Australia at the same venue last week while New Zealand included both their spinners in the side, AFP reported.
