New Zealand pulled off a brilliant 4-run win over Pakistan in the first Test at Abu Dhabi on Monday. Debutant Ajaz Patel was the star as he took 5 wickets in the second innings to bundle the hosts out for 171.
This victory not just brought jubilation on the field but the celebrations continued in the dressing room where the Kiwi players were spotted performing the Bhangra on famous Punjabi song, “Mundian To Bach Ke”.
New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson also praised his team’s never-say-die approach and described the tension-packed 4-run win as a “good advertisement for Test cricket”. It was the fifth narrowest margin of victory in terms of runs in Test cricket history.
