LBW OUT. OUT! L.B.W. Mitchell Santner to Mohammad Abbas. Stock length ball, outside off stump on the back foot defending, hit pad to. Broke in sharply and hit him on the pad! The dreaded finger of the umpire goes up in a flash, Mohammad Abbas has been adjudged lbw and he has reviewed that call. Yes, three reds and Pakistan are nine down. New Zealand are one wicket away from victory.

Catch OUT. OUT! Caught & Bowled. Mitchell Santner to Naseem Shah. Stock length ball, outside off stump on the front foot pushing, mis-timed back to bowler, by Santner. Santner takes a sharp reflex catch! The crowd has found its voice and its flags. Naseem Shah chips it back to the bowler and Santner takes a sharp return catch off his bowling. New Zealand win by 101 runs and lead the two-match Test series 1-0. Pakistan fought hard till the end, but New Zealand played better cricket and deserved the win. Fawad Alam top scored with 102, well accompanied by Mohammad Rizwan with 60 but it still was not enough to chase down the target or bat the remaining five overs. For New Zealand, Tim Southee, Trent Boult, Kyle Jamieson, Neil Wagner and Mitchell Santner picked up a couple of wickets each. Kane Williamson has been adjudged as the man of the match for his excellent performance with the bat. Join us for the second and final Test of the series on January 3 at Hagley Oval, Christchurch.
