Fakhar Zaman and captain Babar Azam starred as Pakistan pulled off a dramatic, rain-hit 21-run victory over New Zealand to stay alive at the Cricket World Cup. 

After New Zealand had piled up a mammoth 401-6 in the match on Saturday in Bengaluru, Pakistan were 160-1 in the 21st over when rain brought a stoppage. 

after a revised target of 342 off 41 overs, Zaman had moved to 126 and Azam was on 66 with their team on 200-1 in the 26th over when the rain returned, this time bringing the game to an end and Pakistan declared the winners as they were ahead of the required rate. 

Pakistan and New Zealand both have eight points and remain in contention for semifinal spots with a match each left to play in the group stage. 

India and South Africa have already wrapped up two of the semifinal places. 

That has left Australia, New Zealand, Pakistan and Afghanistan in the race for the final two spots.
