Kane Williamsom-led New Zealand defeated Pakistan by 2 wickets in the third ODI, clinching the three-match ODI series 2-1. It was a historic moment for the visitors, their first ODI series win on Pakistani soil in 54 years.

Batting first, Pakistan put up 280-9 in 50 overs, courtesy of their prolific opener Fakhar Zaman hitting a century and Mohd Rizwan scoring 77 from 74 balls.

In reply, the Kiwis found themselves in a precarious situation at 205/6, but Glenn Phillips rose to the occasion despite struggling with an upset stomach. The 26-year-old smashed an unbeaten 63 runs off 42 balls to hand his side a terrific 2-wicket win.
