Finn Allen has amassed a total of 245 runs across three innings in this series.

Finn Allen’s remarkable innings, scoring 137 runs off 62 balls with 16 sixes, led New Zealand to a series-clinching win over Pakistan in the third T20. Setting a target of 225, Allen broke the New Zealand T20 record, previously held by Brendon McCullum.
