Pakistan vs New Zealand 3rd T20 Live Stream, Highlights - 30 DEC 2010




Pakistan tour of New Zealand, 3rd T20I: New Zealand v Pakistan at Hamilton, Dec 30, 2010


Taylor was also full of praise for debutant Luke Woodcock who applied the squeeze alongside Nathan McCullum to ratchet up the pressure on Pakistan.
"It's quite a small boundary on the leg side that Woodcock bowled to, and he wasn't daunted by that. He bowled very well in tandem with Nathan and showed good promise. Being a left-armer he gives us some other spinning options as well." Taylor also added that he "owed [Woodcock] a few" after dropping a simple chance off Mohammad Hafeez that would have given the debutant his first wicket at international level.
Taylor also lauded Scott Styris and Peter McGlashan's blitz towards the end of the innings, saying, "the way they batted, it took the pressure off me and I played second fiddle to them and just fed them the strike."
The highlight of the New Zealand innings was McGlashan's 10-ball 26, which included two audacious reverse-swats off Umar Gul, for six.
"It's crazy, I'm never going to try that," Taylor said of McGlashan's stroke. "But that's his shot, I hope he continues to work on that and people just back him to do it. He plays the shot very well and if he continues to perform, that gives us an extra option, not just in the Twenty20 format but in the one-dayers as well. I thought his catches off Nathan were also very good." McCullum, whose 4 for 16 earned him the Man-of-the-Match award, said his job was made easier by the wickets that had fallen just before he came into the attack.
"The time that I was introduced was perfect for a spinner and once they've lost a couple of wickets it's a great time to come on," he said. "That was a pretty big move from Rossco which was great for me and Woody, to be able to work together and create a partnership." "The ball skids a little bit here at night and slightly bigger boundaries are can help with the spinners as well."
