Centuries from Tom Latham and Will Young propelled New Zealand to 60-run victory over defending champion Pakistan in the opening game of the Champions Trophy on Wednesday. Latham smashed unbeaten 118 off 104 balls and Young hit 107 in New Zealand’s total of 320-5 after Pakistan captain Mohammad Rizwan won the toss and elected to field.

Will Young has played almost a chanceless knock and he seems to have found an equally adept partner at last in Tom Latham. New Zealand have steadied themselves after a largely shaky first half of their innings.
