The score is 66/1, with 70 runs needed in 62 balls. The Kiwis are firmly in control, marking an excellent beginning to their innings.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: The batting duo is in exceptional form, with Seifert joining the fray and smashing four sixes off Shaheen, significantly impacting his bowling figures after a maiden over.

Remarkably, the first 30 runs were scored solely through sixes. New Zealand stands at 44/0 after three overs, with 42 of those runs coming from sixes. It appears the Kiwis are eager to conclude the match swiftly, prompting Pakistan to introduce spin early with Khushdil.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: Pakistan must be weary of Finn Allen's presence in Dunedin. Highlights of his previous innings, where he scored 137 runs and hit a record 16 sixes, were shown prior to the match. He has already hit three sixes in just six deliveries, with New Zealand at 18/0 after 2 overs.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: As the chase resumes, Shaheen Afridi appears to be in good rhythm, narrowly missing the inside edge of the bat a couple of times, leaving Tim Seifert slightly shaken and in need of a moment to recover. While Pakistan aimed for an early wicket, this scenario is likely their second-best outcome.

All concerns are quickly forgotten as Finn Allen greets the first ball of the next over with a powerful shot-over point for a six.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: The Pakistan bowlers now have a target to defend, as Shaheen strikes a few well-timed shots. He concludes his innings with a brisk 22*, and while the required run rate is 9,

Chase coming up next.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: Pakistan is struggling significantly, and it is evident that this is yet another disappointing performance, even within the context of a shortened inning.

With three overs remaining, Pakistan stands at 110-6.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: Just as this update is released, Salman is dismissed!

Chapman executed a superb catch at the boundary, leaving Pakistan at 76-5.

The score is 76/4 with six overs remaining. A target of at least 165-170 is essential for this innings.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: The Kiwis continue to apply pressure. A successful review sees Sodhi outsmart Khushdil, catching his outside edge with a googly. Mitch Hay persuades Bracewell to appeal, resulting in a deflection.

Two in the over for Sodhi.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: Pakistan has established a partnership between Irfan and Salman; however, Ish Sodhi's wrist spin proves to be influential. A misjudged shot results in a high, looping ball that is easily caught.

The Kiwis have disrupted the partnership, leaving Pakistan at 50-3 after 6.4 overs. The visitors must accelerate their scoring now.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: Pakistan is managing to find the boundaries intermittently, but they stand at only 19-1 after 3 overs. The mounting pressure is evident: Sears enters the fray, and Haris attempts a shot that is too quick and sharp. A top edge is caught by Duffy at third.

Now at 19-2, Pakistan appears to be struggling.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: Nawaz's performance is lacking! He attempts to play a cross-line shot but only manages to slice it straight up. This poor shot from the opener leaves Pakistan in a precarious position early on. The score is now 1-1, as Duffy continues his successful run.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: The match has finally commenced! Duffy is bowling with the new ball, and it is important to note that there are only 15 overs to play. If Pakistan intends to demonstrate their commitment to high-risk cricket, now is the time, although the conditions are challenging.

NZ: Tim Seifert, Finn Allen, Mark Chapman, Daryl Mitchell, Jimmy Neesham, Mitchell Hay (wk), Michael Bracewell (c), Zakary Foulkes, Jacob Duffy, Ish Sodhi, Ben Sears

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: At long last, the toss does take place, and it's Bracewell who wins it and opts to bowl first, not a surprise to any in these conditions. Only 15 overs apiece, two seamers Haris Rauf and Ben Sears come in for these two teams, while Jimmy Neesham returns for the Kiwis as well.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: Finally some movement, as players from both teams warm up out on the pitch. The two captains in discussion with the umpires, and the broadcasters note that we are mere minutes from the coin toss.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: Live broadcast keeping us updated, but it's not good news as another inspection is set for 20 mins from now. Outfield and pitch must still be quite wet as the sky brightens up. Good news is that it isn't raining more, but we are still a fair way away from the start.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: Cold and windy day in Dunedin, but plenty of fans were still present in the beautiful University of Otago Oval. They will be hoping the teams will be able to provide the fireworks to heat up this chilly afternoon out there, but still waiting on exact details of when we can begin. Hopefully, a full match lies ahead.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: Conditions looking drier, and the umpires are set for an inspection at 2:30 PM local, 7:00 AM IST.

Some members of the teamsare out on the field just taking a look at the pitch, including opener Tim Seifert and coach Luke Ronchi for the Kiwis.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: Reports from Dunedin suggest that it hasn't been raining, but the rain from earlier in the day means there is a delay in the toss and the start of the match due to a wet outfield. Here's hoping we have some action soon.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: A slight concern for a full match as rain in Dunedin could have a role to play at the University Oval. This is the second match of a double-header after the New Zealand Women's match against Sri Lanka was called off after just 14 overs. While the rain has reportedly eased up, it has been a gloomy day in Dunedin, and even more rain is expected later in the day. The threat is there.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: With all those pieces in place, the toss is fast approaching. Will be interesting to see if Michael Bracewell and Salman Agha opt for any changes, or if they will persist with the same teams as in the first T20I. Toss updates up next.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: Pakistan and New Zealand share a very even record in T20I cricket, with Pakistan even narrowly leading by 23 wins to the Kiwis' 20, with a couple of no-results.

In their last 5 matches, it's equally tight, but New Zealand hold the narrow 3-2 advantage. There isn't much to separate these two teams on that front, but recent results and home advantage might mean the Kiwis are the safer bet heading into this particular match.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: Pakistan's recent form doesn't make for good viewing, and while it may seem like Pakistan cricket is in a constant state of disarray, the players will know that ensuring they don't make a habit out of losing consistently. Despite the debutants and fresh faces in this team, there is still enough experience and quality to at least provide a fight. But fighting may not be enough: Pakistan need a win, and going 2-0 down in this five-match series will once again sound the alarm bells.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: As is the case with most grounds in New Zealand, small boundaries and fast pitches make for a venue that is high-scoring and with plenty of boundaries on offer. In three T20Is, the 200-mark has been breached in 3 innings, and more of the same should be expected in this game. Expect a lot of runs in this match, as long as Pakistan can find their feet in this new gameplan.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: For the Kiwis, many of whom aren't regular fixtures in the T20I team, this series is an opportunity to put themselves heavily on the radar for the future as well. Plenty of these names are playing since they haven't received IPL contracts, and in the absence of those stars, this is an excellent opportunity to prove to the management and selectors that they have what it takes to become regulars. Keep an eye on the likes of Tim Seifert and Jacob Duffy, who were key performers in Christchurch and will want to keep it going.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 2nd T20I Live Score: While talk has been of going hell-for-leather with the bat for this Pakistan team, 91 all-out is a chastening first result in this refreshed era of Pakistan T20 cricket.
