PAK vs NZ Test Series 2018: After 'Biscuit Trophy' Twitterati Make Fun of PCB for 'Oye Hoye Cup'
After the limited-overs fixtures, Pakistan and New Zealand are currently locked in a three-match Test series. The opening match of the series is going on at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi.
If you that 'Biscuit Trophy’ was the funniest trophy, think again. Because Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has come up with another funny trophy design and Twitter is having a field day. Last month, the trophy for T20I series between Pakistan and Australia was designed just like a biscuit after it was sponsored by a biscuit company. PCB then was trolled heavily for designing such a bizarre trophy. PAK vs NZ 1st Test 2018 Live Score Updates.

New Zealand after winning the toss, opted to bat first and were bundled outdoor just 153 runs with spinner Yasir Shah picking three wickets. Fast bowlers Mohammad Abbas and Hasan Ali chipped in two wickets each, so did the part-time spinner Haris Sohail. Another spinner Bilal Asif picked a wicket as well. Pakistan earlier won the T20I series 3-0 and the three-match ODI series was shared by the two teams 1-1 after the third and final match was washed out.
