Pakistan slumped to a nine-wicket loss to in the first Twenty20 against New Zealand in Christchurch yesterday after failing to defend a meagre score of 91.

The tourists began the fivematch series in disastrous fashion, reduced to 11-4 at the end of the fifth over after towering paceman Kyle Jamieson ran amok with the new ball.

They were eventually dismissed for their lowest score in a T20 on New Zealand soil and the home side had few problems in responding with 92-1 off just 10.1 overs. Jamieson claimed three of the first four wickets to finish with 3-8 off four overs.
