Ross Taylor Blitz Spanked Pakistan to Huge Defeat.

Well there is a lot of  noise surrounding me off my buddies yelling at 50 over horrible showcase of Kamran Akmal. But it was not all one should be talking about today's match played at Pallekelle Stadium. It was actuallly the late blitz from Ross Taylor that laid the foundation of Pakistan's misery which was yet to follow. What spectators witnessed was one of the cleanest robust hitting of all times. Pakistan after asked to bowl started quite modestly. Runs were not coming easily for New Zealand and wickets continued to fall gradually. Ross Taylor should take Kamran Akmal to dinner for giving him so much favor by dropping him twice in the same over. But caution here: Kamran should be aware of Shoaib whom twice he punched hard by dropping Taylor. When 6th NZ wicket fell the score was a modest 210 in 45.5 overs. Despite being the right time for Pakistan it turned out to be the turning point for NZ. Ross Taylor collected some superficial powers and started to spank Shoaib hard and collected 28 runs form his one over. The next over from Razzaq proved even more productive and Taylor amassed 30 runs of it. New Zealand closed their proceedings at 302 for 7. NZ yielded 92 incredible runs in the last 4.1 overs. Ross Taylor scored 131 notout.

When Pakistan came on to bat no one had idea in his mind that a team which was yet unbeaten in the tournament would perish and disperse like pearls of a broken necklace. Pakistan indeed need a solid batting coach and that orphanage was materialized as top four batsmen thrown away their wickets playing across the line of the ball. None of the batting line up could withstand that immaculate bowling performance from New Zealanders and wickets continued to fall in a quick succession. Desperate partnership between Umer Akmal and Abdul Razzaq tried to tie up the threads in a vain pursuit of that huge target. Both played well while Razzaq missed some precious ones and tows by running slow between the wickets. But it was New Zealand's fielding which at no stage of the innings let Pakistani batsmen steal those vital singles that most of the batsmen like to fancy in the middle overs. Eventually both fell in desperation  and soon it was curtains for Pakistan. Pakistan were cleaned up for 192 and lost by 110 runs.
