Martin Guptill smote 80 off 48 balls as New Zealand beat Pakistan by 22 runs to become the first side to reach the World Twenty20 semi-finals. The opener scored 48 per cent of his runs through the mid-on region, striking 10 fours and three sixes, to set the Black Caps on course for 180-5.Sharjeel Khan produced a dazzling 47 off 25 balls in response but the chase fizzled out as spinners Mitchell Santner (2-29) and Ish Sodhi (1-25) grasped control, Shahid Afridis side closing on 158-5. Martin Guptill targets his favourite area - going straight against Pakistan Guptill, the third highest run-scorer in T20I cricket, opened his boundary count in glorious style, launching Mohammad Irfan down the ground for a straight six before plundering three fours off the next over, bowled by Mohammad Amir.The right-hander dominated an opening stand of 62 with Kane Williamson (17), who was rather subdued before he miscued a drive off Irfan to Afridi at cover.Colin Munro, likewise, failed to get going - his switch-hit picking out Sharjeel in the deep off Afridis bowling - and Guptill might have fallen on 49 but survived a close lbw shout from the same bowler.Reprieved, he reached his 10th T20I fifty off 33 balls and scored at two-a-ball thereafter before playing Mohammad Sami on, attempting to dab the ball past third man.Corey Anderson (21) fell displaying greater intent, mistiming a drive off Afridi to long-off, and Luke Ronchi steered Sami to point but Ross Taylor (36 not out off 23 balls) put New Zealand in the box-seat. Kane Williamson made 17 but failed to really get going Pakistans response was bullish - Sharjeel striking nine fours and a six as he and Ahmed Shehzad (30 off 32) racked up 65 off the first 5.3 overs.Khalid Latif, in danger of halting the flow, slogged Santner up in the air and Shehzad also fell to the left-arm spinner trying to force the rate.Fellow slow bowler Sodhi helped pile the pressure on Pakistan, picking up the key wicket of Afridi in the process - the skipper lofting the ball high to long-off where Anderson stretched to hold a stunning catch.With the required rate steadily mounting, Umar Akmal (24 off 26) and Shoaib Malik strived in vain to produce a grandstand finish but with no boundaries coming in the last 5.1 overs, New Zealand cantered home.Watch highlights of New Zealand against Pakistan on Sky Sports 2 from 7pm - then join us for England against Afghanistan live on the same channel from 9am on Wednesday.

GLENDALE, Ariz. -- Mike Smith stopped 29 shots for his first shutout of the season, Antoine Vermette had a power-play goal in the first period, and the Phoenix Coyotes beat the Vancouver Canucks 1-0 on Thursday night. In a game full of penalties and killed power plays, the Coyotes got stellar goaltending and just enough offence while the Canucks continued to struggle on the offence. Phoenix also got a break on a reviewed goal in the third period. Vancouver lost for the eighth time in nine games as an apparent goal from captain Henrik Sedin near the midpoint of the third was waved off after a replay review. Smith stopped Kevin Bieksas shot but the rebound came to Sedin, who knocked the puck into the net with his body. The Canucks have one goal in their last three games and lost all three on their road trip to Southern California and Arizona. Still, Vancouver had a chance to draw even after a high-sticking double-minor against centre Martin Hanzal. The Canucks were on a power play for all but the last 4 seconds of the game, with six attackers for the final minute, but failed to score. The teams combined for five power plays in the first period, three for the Canucks and two for the Coyotes. Phoenix scored on its second man-advantage situation with 7:09 remaining in the period. Keith Yandle faked a shot from the point and passed to Vermette in front of the red line almost directly to goalie Eddie Lacks left. Vermette took the tough-angle shot and the puck glanced off a Cannucks defender and past Lack.dddddddddddd. Earlier, Lacks reflexes kept the game scoreless when he turned away a good opportunity for Oliver Ekman-Larsson at the 6:18 mark. The Canucks started the second period on a power play that didnt produce results. Daniel Sedin had an open net 4:32 into the period, but his shot sailed high and over the goal. The Coyotes had a 3-on-1 chance with just over 8 minutes left in the second, but Lack stretched out to stop Radim Vrbatas shot and the Canucks cleared the puck, to the delight of a large contingent of blue-clad Vancouver fans inside Jobing.com Arena. Ekman-Larsson hit the post with a shot with 24 seconds left in the period and the Coyotes on their fifth power play of the game. Vancouvers penalty minutes were an improvement from the 142 combined from the Canucks previous two games. The Canucks had several good chances in the third period but Smith turned them away each time, including a save on Brad Richardsons wrist shot with no defender in front of him at the 1:20 mark. NOTES: The Coyotes improved to 16-7-3 this season when scoring first. ... Phoenix waived D Rostislav Klesla before Thursdays game, and activated D Zbynek Michalek from injured reserve.
