Pakistan thrash NZ

AFP, Lahore
Leg-spinner Danish Kaneria snapped up five wickets to seal Pakistan's biggest win in Test history by an innings and 324 runs against New Zealand in the first Test here Friday.
Kaneria took 5-110 at the Gaddafi Stadium as the tourists were dismissed for 246 in the last over before stumps on the third day, marking their worst ever Test defeat.
New Zealand captain Stephen Fleming topscored with a pugnacious 66 and Lou Vincent made 57, but none of the Kiwi batsmen were able to put up any real resistance to the Pakistani onslaught.
A ninth wicket stand of 18 between Daryl Tuffey and Brooke Walker delayed the inevitable until Kaneria took Tuffey for 12 and Saqlain Mushtaq dismissed Chris Martin for nought to secure the victory.
"It was a tough day in the office, especially when you go and chase the ball for two days, but we are hurt after disappointing batting," Fleming said.
"The conditions were not unplayable and we need to be much better in the next Test."
Pakistan captain Waqar Younis said he was delighted at breaking a jinx at the venue.
"It is great to break the barrier. We have won our first Test here for 12 years and it was outstanding play by Inzamamul Haq and fiery bowling by Shoaib Akhtar that played key roles," Younis said.
"When the pitch turned it was Kaneria who guided us to the win," he said.
Express paceman Akhtar, who missed the second innings due to a swollen ankle, took a career best 611 off 8.2 overs to help dismiss New Zealand for a paltry 73 in their first knock.
Inzamam's memorable 329 was the cornerstone of Pakistan's formidable first innings total of 643.
This becomes the fifth biggest
defeat in Test cricket's 127-year history and marks the Black Cap's heaviest humiliation.
Following on 570 runs behind, the tourists lost opener Mathew Horne as early as the sixth ball when Younis had him caught behind by Rashid Latif for nought.
Mark Richardson and Vincent carried the total to 69 when Richardson miscued a sweep and
was snapped up by Latif off Mushtaq after making 32.
Vincent hit two boundaries off Kaneria to reach his fourth half century but fell seven runs later when he edged one to Latif off Kaneria for 57.
Left handers Fleming and Chris Harris then defied a depleted Pakistan attack through some cau
tious batting and took New Zealand to 140-3 at tea.
Fleming crossed the 4,000 run mark in his 69th Test when he reached 24. He becomes the third New Zealand player behind Martin Crowe (5,444 in 77 Tests) and John Wright (5,334 in 82 Tests) to reach the milestone.
Earlier in the morning New Zealand resumed at 58-6 and were dismissed in just 30.2 overs, their second lowest total in a Test against Pakistan.
Akhtar, who arrived late due to injury, dismissed Brooke Walker and Chris Martin with successive deliveries to take five or more wickets for the fourth time.
The second Test starts in Karachi from May 8.
