    Adjusting to the Eden Park cricket boundaries is proving to be a challenge for Pakistan ahead of tonight's first Twenty20 against the Black Caps

    Adjusting to the Eden Park cricket boundaries is proving to be a challenge for Pakistan ahead of tonight's first Twenty20 against the Black Caps


    It's one of the smallest fields in the world - with a straight boundary of around 55 metres and a square boundary of 65 metres.

    Pakistan skipper Shaheen Afridi has given his take on the ground and the problems he'll face as a pace bowler.



    Meanwhile, Black Caps spinner Mitchell Santner has been ruled out of the opener with Covid.

    First ball is at ten past seven.
