New Zealand’s young sensation Kyle Jamieson impressed again with his superb performance in the ongoing second Test against Pakistan at Hagley Oval in Christchurch on Sunday.
The right-arm speedster picked up a fiv🌺e-wicket haul as the hosts bowled out visitors for 297. It was the third occasion when Jameison claimed a fifer in Test cricket. He finished the Day 1 with five sca🌌lps for 69 runs in 21 overs.
However, at one stage, Pakistan struggled on 83/4, before former captain Azhar Ali and current stand-in skipper Mohammad Rizwan to🐽ok charge to take their team out of hot waters.
The pair went on to add a crucial ꦫstand of 88 runs for the fifth wicket before Jamieson broke the partnership and removed Rizwan for a well made 61.
On the other hand, Ali kept on tickling the scoreboard and formed another vital partnership with Faheem Ashraf (48). Both the batters stitched 56 runs for the sixth wicket. Ali was looking set to score his 18th Test ton, but, Matt Henry dismissed him on 93.
Zafar Gohar show🐟ed bright signs wiꦜth the willow after contributing with valuable 34 runs down the order.
Tim Southee and Trent Boult bagged two wickets ꦛeach while Henry picked up one scalp for the home team.
Here is how Twitter reacted:
M♛aybe the best hundred he never got. Well played, Azhar Ali. Once again showed his class and rescued the team from 83-4.

New Zealand have bowled well enough that Pakistan could have easily been all out for 180 here.💟
The fact that they're 227/6 is testament to just how well batted.
That 93 was a🌌 much better innings than lots of test centuries.

Kyle Jamieson.
He can get awkward bounce. And also goes fuller… looking for swing or nifty movement off the pitch.

297 not a bad total on this 🎃pitch, remember New Zealand have to bat last, Pakistan will definitely have the chance to level the series. Good Contribution from down the order which is miꦅssing..

Well played , scoring 297 in the🐠ir first innings; after they were 83/4 at lunch time. Loved the grit and gameplay by Azhar, Rizwan, Faheem and Zafജar Gohar on debut.

Kyle Jamieson could have the 3rd best avg and 2nd best strike rate in test history… if he keeps this up for another 918 balls.
Can’t be fastest to 50 wkts but he’s a near certainty to smash Bond’s NZ record of 12 tests… he’s already got 30 from 5.5 tests!
