Twitter reacts New Zealand as Pakistan suffered a serious blow to their chances of qualifying for the Semi-finals of World T20 as New Zealand defeated them by 22 runs at Mohali on Tuesday Night.

New Zealand, batting first, posted a challenging total of 180 for 5 wickets. Martin Guptill’s knock of 80 off 48 balls & Ross Taylor’s unbeaten innings of 36 off 23 balls laid the foundation of a fighting score for the Kiwis. In reply, Sharjeel Khan gave the perfect start for the ‘Men in Green’ as he blasted 47 off just 25 deliveries but the Kiwis made a brilliant comeback courtesy of the spin duo of Mitchell Santner & Ish Sodhi as New Zealand won their third consecutive game of the World T20. New Zealand are now the first team to qualify for the semi-final of World T20 2016.
