Christchurch, April 5, 2025 – New Zealand completed a dominant 3-0 ODI series sweep over Pakistan with a 43-run victory in the third and final match, thanks to strong performances by Ben Sears and Michael Bracewell. Batting first, New Zealand posted a competitive total, with key contributions throughout the lineup. Pakistan’s chase faltered under pressure from New Zealand’s disciplined bowling attack.
Ben Sears was instrumental with the ball, picking up crucial wickets early on, while Michael Bracewell tightened the screws in the middle overs with an all-round performance. Pakistan, despite brief resistance, failed to build partnerships and were bowled out well short of the target. The clean sweep marks a strong statement by the Kiwis ahead of upcoming international fixtures.
