Babar Azam: On Friday, December 30 in Karachi, the first Test between Pakistan and New Zealand ended in a high-scoring tie thanks to the home team's solid batting, which managed to save the match despite the visitors' best efforts.
Saud Shakeel (55*) and Mohammad Wasim Jnr. (43) played well in the batting order to save the team as Pakistan fell to 206/7 on day five after resuming at 77/2 and trailing by 97 runs. A six-wicket haul was given to Ish Sodhi in recognition of his excellent bowling.
With a realistic target of 138 in 15 overs, Pakistan's captain Babar Azam then made an unorthodox declaration, which New Zealand superbly reacted to with 61/1 in 7.3 overs before play was suspended due to poor light and the players shook hands.

After the game, Babar Azam gave a press conference and answered some challenging questions before getting up and leaving. This baffled a reporter, who responded, "Ye koi tareeka nahi hain, yaha sawaal ke lie aapko ishaare kar rahe hain. (This isn’t the way, people are trying to ask the questions)
The team's media manager turned off his microphone to wrap up the press conference, and Babar sent the reporter a sour look before walking away without saying anything.
On January 2, the second Test is slated to begin in Karachi, and Pakistan will be hoping to change their luck.
