The second match of the five-match T20I series between New Zealand and Pakistan took place on March 18, 2025, at the University Oval in Dunedin. New Zealand opener Tim Seifert showcased an explosive batting display against Shaheen Afridi, hitting four sixes in a single over.

Afridi, bowling the third over of the innings, was struck for a six on the very first ball by Seifert, who played a powerful front-foot shot. The onslaught continued as Seifert launched the second delivery over cover for another six. Although Afridi managed to beat him on the third ball, Seifert took two runs on the fourth and finished the over in style with two more massive sixes. In total, 26 runs were scored off the over.

Seifert maintained an aggressive approach but fell just five runs short of his 10th T20I half-century. Facing 22 deliveries, he scored 45 runs at an impressive strike rate of 204.55, hitting three fours and five sixes. His innings came to an end when Shaheen Afridi caught him off the bowling of Mohammad Ali.
