Tour Match – Pakistan v Wellington
A solid half century from stand in captain Younis Khan & some superb bowling from all rounders Abdul Razzaq & Azhar Mahmood has guided Pakistan to a relatively comfortable win over Wellington.
Khan won the toss & batted, all his top order making starts yet only he went on to a half century, eventually caught behind for 63 (78 balls, 3 fours, 1 six).
Lusty hitting from Moin Khan, Abdul Razzaq & Azhar Mahmood guiding the tourists to 9-258.
A great start from Chris Nevin gave Pakistan a few heart flutters, however after Nevin fell to Azhar Mahmood for 80 (109 balls, 7 fours), the Wellington innings fell away, Razzaq cleaning up the tail to finish with 4-33, Wellington eventually 224 all out in the 45th over.

Pakistan 9/258 (Y.Khan 63(78), S.Elahi 40(54), Woodcock 4-38)
Wellington 224 all out (C.Nevin 80(109), G.Donaldson 47(46), A.Razzaq 4-33, A.Mahmood 4-41)
