TOSS - New Zealand have won the toss and will BAT first!

Not much on stake for New Zealand and they will hope to end the series with a victory. However, the way they are performing it will be a hard outing if they don't perform at their highest. Pakistan on the other hand, are flying high and will look to end the tour with a win. Stay tuned for toss and other updates.

Hello and a warm welcome to the coverage of the fifth and final ODI between New Zealand and Pakistan. The home team have cruised so far as they have put on dominating performance game after game. They have a really good chance to clean-sweep the series with the home crowd at their back. New Zealand will be disappointed with how they have performed so far. The first couple of games were a bit close but the last two games were one-sided which didn't help them dearly. 

..MATCH DAY...
