Pakistan's hopes took an early blow in the 2nd T20I against New Zealand as opener Mohammad Rizwan departed after a brief stint at the crease. The anticipated battle between bat and ball unfolded dramatically, and unfortunately for Pakistan, it was Tim Southee's delivery that initiated the downfall. 

With a length ball that swung away outside off, Rizwan attempted a push without proper foot movement, only to find the waiting gloves of Devon Conway. The optimism surrounding Rizwan's entrance quickly dissipated as he left the field with 7 runs off 5 balls.

The turning point came in the 2nd over when Adam Milne's delivery showcased its venomous nature. A beautifully bowled ball lifted off a length, inducing an edge from Rizwan, who was positioned on the back foot. 

The result was a straightforward catch for the wicketkeeper, sealing Rizwan's fate. Milne's delivery, seaming away after pitching outside off, enticed Rizwan into an indiscreet poke, earning the crucial breakthrough for New Zealand.

At 35 for 2 in 4 overs, Pakistan faced a challenging situation. With Babar Azam and Fakhar Zaman at the crease.
