Shadab, Babar complete 3-0 whitewash of NZ: 3rd T20 (Dubai)

Spinner Shadab Khan sparked a Kiwi batting collapse after Babar Azam reached 1,000 Twenty20 runs in record time as Pakistan completed a 3-0 series whitewash over New Zealand with a 47-run victory.

Babar hit a punishing 58-ball 79 with seven boundaries and two sixes while Mohammad Hafeez hit a 34-ball 53 not out with two sixes and four boundaries to lift Pakistan to 166-3.

Shadab took 3-30 and debutant Waqas Maqsood finished off New Zealand with two wickets on his 31st birthday as the tourists lost eight wickets in just 4.4 overs.

Pakistan 166 for 3 (Babar 79, Hafeez 53*) beat New Zealand 119 (Williamson 60, Shadab 3-30, Maqsood 2-21, Imad 2-28) by 47 runs.
