Pakistan’s leg-spinner Shadab Khan took three wickets in an over but New Zealand still scored 266-9 in the first day-night international in Abu Dhabi on Wednesday.
Shadab finished with 4-38 – his third four-wicket haul – after Ross Taylor (80) and Tom Latham (68) had stitched together a 130-run partnership for the fourth wicket after New Zealand won the toss and opted to bat.
Paceman Shaheen Shah Afridi finished with 4-46.
Trent Boult got the Kiwis off to a great start as he took a hat-trick in the third over, dismissing Fakhar Zaman, Babar Azam and Mohammaed Hafeez to reduce Pakistan to 8/3.
