Cricket: Ross Taylor scored a stunning 131 not out to help New Zealand beat Pakistan by 110 runs and take over the lead of Group A at the Cricket World Cup.
Taylor thumped eight fours and seven sixes in his unbeaten knock scored off 124 balls in the Group A match, as New Zealand reached 302-7 from their 50 overs.
In response, Pakistan struggled from the off and at one stage were 66-6 and then 125-8. But Abdul Razzaq, in at No 8, gave more than a modicum of respectability to Pakistan with a defiant 62 in a ninth wicket partnership of 66 with Umur Gul (34 not out).
Pakistan were eventually all out for 192.
