So Pakistani ODI status will undisputedly swing from embarrassing to shameful if they lose it tonight as well. Its a D/N match so will start 3 hours late.

Re: 4th ODI (D/N), Pakistan v/s NZ at Hamilton, Jan 16 2018
I think they ended up with a decent score of 262 though they could have done way better. But the last three horrible defeats were sitting in their mind like a haunting image.
Take away from this is Four 50s. Hafeez had a blast in the end which helped.
Now as much as I’m a fan of Babar Azam, after 4 flop innings there is no way he should be given any more chance in this tour. Same may go for Malik but i think he’ll bounce back.
