Pakistan seek prompt response as Kiwi quick looks for consistency

Pakistan seek prompt response as Kiwi quick looks for consistency

Dunedin, Mar 17 (UNI) New Pakistan T20I captain Salman Ali Agha wants to see his side respond quickly to their disappointing nine-wicket loss to New Zealand in Christchurch on Sunday.
Pakistan's tour of New Zealand got off to a poor start when they were dismissed for just 91 runs at Hagley Oval and the Black Caps wasted little time in chasing down that small target for the loss of just one wicket.
The match was Salman's first in charge as captain, with Pakistan featuring three debutants in their starting XI and the team missing regular performers Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam in what was a new-look side.
