Earlier, the White Ferns' openers laid a solid foundation for a competitive total with a vital 47-run stand for the first wicket.

Anosha Nasir then handed the green shirts their first breakthrough in the fifth over as she removed Emma McLeod, who scored a quickfire 32 off just 18 deliveries.

Following her dismissal, Plimmer partnered with opener Anna Browning and stitched a 35-run partnership for the second wicket before the latter perished after a cautious knock of 31 off 25 balls.

The right-handed batter top-scored for her side with 53 off 38 deliveries and smashed five boundaries.

Anosha led the bowling attack for Pakistan with 3/32, while Mahnoor Aftab bagged two wickets. Rida Aslam and Syeda Aroob Shah, on the other hand, made one scalp each.
