New Zealand have clinched the series 2-0 against Pakistan as they defeat the visitors by three wickets at Eden Park, Auckland. Pakistan batting first scored 290 in 50 overs with the help of Babar Azam (83) and Mohammad Hafeez (76). But New Zealand with Martin Guptill’s 82 and Kane Willaimson’s 84 scored 265 in 42.4 overs. New Zealand won the match by three wickets and two balls remaining as per D/L method. Umpire Billy Bowden’s decision to give Corey Anderson, who nicked behind the wicket and caught by Sarfraz Ahmed, not out affected Pakistan’s chances in the match. So, after losing the match, angry Pakistani fans reacted on twitter.

But, not all the same. There are a few Pakistanis who came to Billy Bowden’s rescue.
So Pakistanis have forgotten all the poor performances and cussing Billy Bowden. They have found a good scapegoat. #NZvsPak

You were bowled out in less than 50 overs after looking set for 350. Stop blaming Billy Bowden. We didn’t deserve to win. #PakvsNZ

Pakistan lost 7 wickets for 75 runs. Couldn’t even bat 50 overs. But no it is Billy Bowden who has cost Pakistan a match. #NZvsPak
