Kiwis beats Pakistan by 183 runs in the third ODI game. New Zealand defeated Pakistan for the third consecutive time in this series. Earlier, in the match half-centuries by Kane Williamson and Ross Taylor helped Kiwis to the score of 257 in the face of a sharply improved performance by Pakistan in the field at the third one-day international in Dunedin on Saturday. With the tourists needing to win to keep the series alive after losing the first two ODIs, they pinned New Zealand down at key times. In the last eight overs, when New Zealand needed to lift the run rate, they were restricted to 48 runs and lost seven wickets of which 11 runs came in the final over. Williamson, who was struggled to penetrate the field for much of his innings, made important innings of 73 runs but it took 101 deliveries to get there. Taylor made 52 off 64 for his 57th ODI half-century, equalling the New Zealand record held by Stephen Fleming and Nathan Astle.

Rumman Raees returned figures of three for 51, Hasan Ali took three for 59 and Shadab Khan took two for 51 with his wickets coming of successive balls. New Zealand made a flying start with Martin Guptill and Colin Munro cracking sixes for their first scoring shots but the innings stalled soon after. Pakistan Innings was fall short when they start chasing total of 258 runs
