They are Finally Using Their Heads

The Pakistanis finally started using their heads while fielding. First Imran Farhat dropped a catch but used his head to make sure the ball wouldn't go for a four. Then Ajmal used his head to save may be a couple and finally Akmal used his head to stop the ball from going for four byes. One only wished that Gul too would have used his head and at least saved the six on the catch he had dropped.

Impressed, the New Zealand batsmen themselves used their heads a few times to play the bouncers thus ensuring that there were no catches. There was also an impressive use of the head when the ball jumped up of the leading edge and the batsman had the presence of mind to use his head to bring the ball quickly down before it could have looped for a catch.
