 New Zealand's Glenn Phillips walks after losing his wicket, bowled by Pakistan's Mohammad Wasim. - ReutersPakistan bowlers were taken to cleaners as New Zealand set a massive target of 402 runs during the ICC World Cup 2023 match in Bengaluru on Saturday. Rachin Ravindra hit his third century of the World Cup while captain Kane Williamson fell agonisingly short of three figures as New Zealand piled up the runs in their crucial World Cup clash against Pakistan. 
	
		
	
Here are all the numbers behind Pakistan’s thrashing against New Zealand: - Shaheen Afridi, 10-0-90-0, bowls the most expensive spell by a Pakistani bowler in World Cup history. - New Zealand registered 401/6 in 50 overs against Pakistan, their highest total in ODI World Cup history.- Shaheen Afridi went wicketless after 23 consecutive ODIs.- The 46 fours Pakistan conceded today in Bengaluru is the most they have in an innings in their ODI history.During the match, Ravindra reached three figures off 88 balls with 14 fours and a six.The 23-year-old left-hander had already made an unbeaten 123 in a convincing nine-wicket win against defending champions England and 116 in the five-run defeat to Australia.Williamson, back in the team after breaking his thumb earlier in the tournament, fell for 95 after sharing a 180-run second wicket partnership with Ravindra.Earlier, Pakistan won the toss and opted to field in the crucial World Cup clash against New Zealand.Williamson, who had only recovered from knee surgery just before the tournament, featured in the match against Bangladesh in Chennai on October 13 during which he fractured his thumb and missed the subsequent games.Pakistan all-rounder Shadab Khan is still unavailable for selection after suffering concussion during the one-wicket defeat against South Africa.Besides Williamson, New Zealand named spinner Ish Sodhi in place of injured seamer Matt Henry, Will Young made way for the skipper while Mark Chapman replaced James Neesham.New Zealand are currently fourth in the 10-team table with eight points after their opening four wins were followed by three defeats.Pakistan, with six points, need to win to stay in contention for a semi-final place.Teams:New Zealand: Devon Conway, Rachin Ravindra, Kane Williamson (capt), Daryl Mitchell, Tom Latham (wkt), Mark Chapman, Glenn Phillips, Mitchell Santner, Ish Sodhi, Tim Southee, Trent BoultPakistan: Abdullah Shafique, Fakhar Zaman, Babar Azam (capt), Mohammad Rizwan, Saud Shakeel, Iftikhar Ahmed, Agha Salman, Hasan Ali, Mohammad Wasim, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Haris Rauf
