Wellington (New Zealand), Dec. 6 (ANI): Pakistan has beaten New Zealand by 141 runs in the second test on day four at the Basin Reserve today to level their three-match series one all.
Needing 405 for victory, New Zealand were dismissed for 263 during the middle session.
Middle-order batseman Ross Taylor top scored in the New Zealand second innings with 97, while Pakistan pace bowler Mohammad Asif took five for 67 to end with a match analysis of nine for 107 and the man-of-the-match award, the New Zealand Herald reports.
