Pakistan defeated New Zealand by 6 wickets in a tri-series T20I match between the sides at Hagley Oval, Christchurch on Saturday. Batting first, Kane Williamson-led New Zealand posted 147 for 8 in 20 overs before Babar Azam's 79 not out helped Pakistan reach home with 10 balls to spare. While Babar shone in the second innings of the game for Pakistan, it was the side's ace pacer Haris Rauf, who hogged the limelight in the first innings with figures of 3 or 28 in 4 overs.

All the three wickets of Rauf came in his last over, which was the 19th over of the New Zealand innings.

New Zealand, who were 137 for 4 at the start of the 19th over, were looking to accelerate in the slog overs but Rauf's three wickets put a dent on their scoring rate as they could eventually score only 10 runs off the remaining 12 balls.

Promoted

Rauf first cleaned up James Neesham with the second ball of his over before getting the wicket of new batter Michael Bracewell off the very next delivery. The right-arm pacer missed his hat-trick as Ish Sodhi stole a single off the fourth ball of his over but he picked the wicket of Mark Chapman to end the over on a high.

A total of five runs came off the over that saw Rauf picking three wickets.

Apart from Haris Rauf, Mohammad Wasim Jr also returned impressive figures of 2 for 20 in his four overs. Mohammad Nawaz also got two wickets but conceded at the rate of 11 runs per over.

By
Austin, a 70-year-old career soldier, initially underwent minor surgery to treat cancer on December 22. Washington: US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin is likely to make a "full recovery" from prostate cancer and his prognosis is "excellent," two doctors said after he was seen at Walter Reed hospital for a follow-up appointment. Austin controversially kept US President Joe Biden in the dark about the cancer diagnosis for weeks, and did not inform either the commander-in-chief or Congress until days after he was hospitalized on January 1 for complications from his treatment. "Secretary Austin was seen today at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for a scheduled post-prostatectomy surveillance appointment," the doctors said in a statement released by the Pentagon. "He continues to recover well and is expected to make a full recovery. Secretary Austin's prostate cancer was treated early and effectively, and his prognosis is excellent,...

North Korea Says It Tested New Strategic Cruise Missile

By
North Korea test-fired a new generation of strategic cruise missile on Wednesday. (Representational) Seoul: North Korea fired several cruise missiles towards the Yellow Sea on Wednesday, Seoul's military said, the latest in a series of tension-raising moves by the nuclear-armed state. Hours later, North Korea appeared to confirm the firing, saying it had carried out its first test of a new generation of strategic cruise missiles it is developing, the Pulhwasal-3-31.

"Our military detected several cruise missiles launched by North Korea towards the Yellow Sea at around 7:00 am today," the South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff said in a statement. Unlike their ballistic counterparts, the testing of cruise missiles is not banned under current UN sanctions against Pyongyang. Cruise...
