Champ Trophy: New Zealand beat Pakistan by five wickets

New Zealand beat Pakistan by five wickets to secure their place in the final of the ICC Champions Trophy alongside Australia. Batting first, the Pakistan team managed a score of 233 in their 50 overs after a middle order batting collapsed. They never really recovered, and a fifth wicket partnership between Captain Daniel Vettori and Grant Eliot proved crucial as the New Zealanders snatched victory in the 48th over. The final will now be played on Monday.
