The Black Caps haven't had the start they hoped for at the T20 Cricket World Cup in United Arab Emirates, losing their first match to Pakistan by five wickets this morning.

The New Zealanders lost the toss and were asked to bat first, scoring 134 for eight - a total which Pakistan chased down with eight balls to spare.

Batting coach Luke Ronchi spoke to Corin Dann.
