The Black Caps have been beaten by Pakistan in their first match of the T20 Cricket World Cup in Sharja in the United Arab Emirates.

The New Zealanders lost the toss and were asked to bat first, scoring 134 for eight.

Pakistan chased down that total with 8 balls to spare, to secure their second win of the tournament.
