Divya Delhi:  Pakistan captain Salman Ali Agha said his team improved but required better power play after losing by 5 wickets against New Zealand in the second T20I at University Oval. Agha said Pakistan's performance was better than their last game in the post-game news conference. He identified areas where the team needed to improve. The team fielded and batted well against Agha, but bowling was inconsistent due to match conditions.
