PAK v NZ 1st ODI: Pakistan bag unwanted record
As Pakistan continue their 235-run chase, the visitors bagged an unwanted record during the first innings.
The record helped New Zealand reach 344-9 in their allotted 50 overs at McLean Park on Saturday.
The Pakistan bowling unit not only struggled to keep New Zealand batters from scoring freely in the death overs, but they also failed to contain extras.
They give away a significant number of extras, including wides and leg-byes.
In total, the Men in Green conceded 43 extra runs in the first innings, marking the third-highest extras conceded in an ODI innings.
The record for the most extras conceded by Pakistan in ODIs was set against the same opposition in Manchester in 1999 (47 extras), followed by 44 extras each against Sri Lanka in Sharjah in 1990 and New Zealand in Dambulla in 2003.
