The two captains share the trophy as the series ends 0-0 and that brings us to an end of a thrilling Test match. Both teams would have loved for the result to go their way but in the end, it has to be said that it was a fair result as neither team deserved to lose. We shift our focus now to the three-match ODI series between these two team with all games set to be played at the same ground as this game. The first game will be played on Monday 9th January and it will begin at 3 pm IST (9.30 am GMT) but do join us earlier for the build-up. Until then, it is goodbye and cheers!
Tim Southee, the skipper of New Zealand says that the game had come down the last moment which is always exciting. Mentions that always come into a Test match to win and they were in a good position throughout the game to claim victory. Credits Sarfaraz and says that he played really well especially in the middle session but they still had a chance in end. Expresses that Ish Sodhi who made a comeback after so long, did really well and credits bracewell and all the other players for giving it their all for the side. Reckons that the nature of the wicket changed quite late in the game but it was sarfaraz who proved to be the difference between winning the game and the draw. Ends by saying that it has been a tough tour and it is time to shift their focus to ODI cricket.
Babar Azam, the captain of Pakistan is in for a chat. He says that their plan after the Tea break was to go for the chase. Their main aim was to keep things simple till the final session. Mentions that some tweaks were made to the plan once Agha Salman departed. Adds that they will look at the positives here and look to sharpen it to perfection. Ends by praising Sarfaraz Ahmed for his incredible innings. Informs that he waited patiently for his time and has proven his worth this time.
Sarfaraz Ahmed is the Player of the Match and the Player of the Series for his outstanding effort with the bat. He thanks god for his comeback and mentions that he has been around the team waiting for his opportunity to come. Claims that there was a lot of turn early on and he got the confidence for his teammates to be able to play a good inning. Explains that with 140 runs remaining they aimed to go for the balls which were there to be hit. Admits that this 100 was in the fourth inning and it is always difficult which makes it one his best centuries. Ends by saying that the home crowd has always been with him and he hopes that the crowd comes to support them for the ODI series.
Stay tuned for the presentation...
The Kiwis were off to a horror start when they came back on the field to put a target on the board as they lost Devon Conway for a golden duck. In this innings, the Kiwis had two century run stands, first for the second wicket, between Kane Williamson and Tom Latham. Followed by a 127-run stand between Michael Bracewell and Tom Blundell. The former was forced to come out before Daryl Mitchell, who stayed in the dressing room because he was ill. Eventually, they decided to declare after setting a target of 319 runs and got themselves just three over to bowl before the Stumps on Day 4. This decision proved to be fruitful for the visitors as Tim Southee and Ish Sodhi took a wicket each inside the three overs wherein Pakistan even failed to get off the mark. Eventually, it ended as a draw but both the teams fought till the very end.
When Pakistan came out to bat, Abdullah Shafique got them off to a bright start in his short stint, although they were teetering at 99/3 with Imam-ul-Haq still left at the crease with Saud Shakeel. The two built a stand of 83 runs to stable the ship. But they could not continue for long. Later, Saud Shakeel and Sarfaraz Ahmed took their time to take on the bowlers. Both the players got to their fifties but Ahmed could not convert it into three-figures. Although, the tail-enders were unable to spend long time at the crease which was very unlike the New Zealand lower order. In the end, Pakistan handed the Kiwis a lead of 41 runs as they got all out for 408 runs.
Earlier in the Test match, after electing to bat first. New Zealand batters justified their skippers decision by getting off to a flyer. Tom Latham and Devon Conway stitched a stand of 134 runs for he opening wicket. Then, Conway builds a solid stand with Kane Williamson to stable the ship, but once this stand was broken the Kiwis started losing wickets at regular intervals. Tom Blundell played a crucial anchor role and his knock of 51 helped to keep Pakistan at bay. The hosts wouldve thought it after the wicket of Tom Blundell it could be a walk in the park for them. But it did not go as per plan as Matt Henry and Ajaz Patel stitched a 104-run stand for the final wicket to take the score to 449 runs. Once again, it was the spinners who benefitted on this flat-deck. Abrar Ahmed and Agha Salman combined for seven wickets in total.
After remaining wicketless in the post-Lunch session, Pakistan seemed to be on the driving seat to chase the target down as Sarfaraz Ahmed and Saud Shakeel came back out all guns-blazing. The Kiwis bowlers initially struggled to cause any damage as both the batters seemed to be in solid form. Sarfaraz Ahmed marked his comeback into the side with a Test century here. Although, Michael Bracewell came into the attack and got some hope back into Kiwis dressing room by getting rid of Saud Shakeel. Later, Agha Salman and Sarfaraz Ahmed scored briskly which allowed them to believe that they still have a chance of winning the encounter as they smacked 70 runs off 83 balls for the seventh-wicket stand. But once Agha Salman fell, it gave an opening to the Kiwis which they pounced on with both hands. They even got rid of Sarfaraz Ahmed at the end of stumps but could not take the final wicket in time. Michael Bracewell stood out with the ball for the Kiwis with his four-fer.
Phew! This match went down to the wire. Both the teams had a fair amount of chance to clinch a win here and seal the series, but in the end the second match is drawn and the series also concludes in a similar fashion. With the way New Zealand started the match this morning it looked like Pakistan will bundle out much quicker but once again Sarfaraz Ahmed and Saud Shakeel showed us that they love batting together and faced 260 balls combined to keep them in the game here. Pakistan started the final day with 0/2 but managed to put up a solid fight inspite of losing Imam-ul-Haq and Babar Azam in the morning session itself.
Oh no! There were still more three overs left but the two umpires converge and they decided that it will be STUMPS ON DAY 5. And, this Test match ends in a draw here, it could have been different if the light wouldn't have played spoil sport.

मायकल ब्रेसवेल To सरफराज अहमद OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! Is this the game for New Zealand? They have a massive wicket here! Sarfaraz Ahmed has played an outstanding inning but departs just before the finish line. Michael Bracewell bowls this slightly short and this one spins sharply down leg side. Sarfaraz Ahmed looks to tuck this away but the ball goes off his gloves towards leg slip. Kane Williamson dives forward and takes fine catch inches from the ground. The umpires get together and go upstairs to check if the catch is taken cleanly and the soft signal is out. Replays show it is all good and New Zealand are one wicket away from a famous win.
Is this out? The two umpires converge and have a chat. They take it upstairs to confirm and the soft signal is OUT. The UltraEdge confirms that the glove is involved. The replays later confirm that the fielder has his fingers across the ball. The big screen shows OUT. Sarfaraz Ahmed has to walk back to the dressing room. How the tables have turned here.

DRINKS! The final refreshment break of this game and Sarfaraz Ahmed is bossing it here! Pakistan need 70 runs in 15 overs to claim an unlikely win and New Zealand need 4 wickets to take the tie in their favor. This is Test cricket at its best and the action is going down to the wire. New Zealand seem to be slightly frustrated as they are devoid of ideas and will have the new ball at their disposal in 2 overs. Pakistan are doing it perfectly as they are chipping away at the runs without taking any risk. An exciting last hour awaits us.

OUT! CAUGHT! New Zealand finally have a breakthrough and the stubborn Saud Shakeel has to make his way back to the pavilion! Michael Bracewell bowls this quicker in the air and slightly short, outside off. Saud Shakeel transfers his weight on the back foot and looks to cut this but gets a thickish outside edge that flies to the left of slip. Daryl Mitchell is placed there and he shows great reflexes to take a sharp catch and Pakistan have been pegged back slightly. The New Zealand players look pumped up now and they may have an opening.

The final session of this Test match is set to begin. The game is nicely poised. Both the team will give it their best shot to put their noses in front early on in this session. The first hour will be very crucial. The New Zealand players make their way out on the track. Followed by Saud Shakeel and Sarfaraz Ahmed. It will be Matt Henry to start with the ball.

मैट हेनरी To सरफराज अहमद
Matt Henry starts off with a good length delivery angled into the stumps. Sarfaraz Ahmed clips this down to fine leg for a single to bring up the 100-run partnership between these two.
New Zealand have lost the spark and are getting very little purchase from the wicket. The odd balls did turn off the wicket and there was a bit of uneven bounce but on a whole, they have been unable to trouble the Pakistani batter. Their shoulders began to slump toward the end of the session and they need to realize that one wicket could wrench control back in their favor. The equation is quite simple as we arrive at the climax of what has been an enthralling Test match - New Zealand need 5 wickets to win and Pakistan need to play out one more session to draw the game. If the hosts wish to hunt for a win, they are 140 runs away from a remarkable Test victory. Do join us at 4.05 pm IST (10.35 am GMT) as we look forward to an exciting final session in which all three results are still possible.
The pendulum keeps shifting on this final day as Pakistan have fought their way back in this session to score just 54 runs in 24 overs but most importantly have not lost a single wicket. Saud Shakeel and Sarfaraz Ahmed seem to love to bat together as they have added a run 99-unbeaten partnership to go with their 150-run partnership in the first inning. Pakistan will be hoping they continue the good work in the final session of the Test match and take them to a position from where they can consider winning this game. They form a perfect balance of aggression and passion as Sarfaraz Ahmed has scored 65 runs in 99 balls with Saud Shakeel playing the anchor role and consuming 129 deliveries for his 27.

DRINKS! New Zealand have been unable to get a breakthrough so far in this session but they need to be patient as one wicket will surely bring a few more. Sarfaraz Ahmed has been brilliant as he has taken the attack to the bowlers and has notched up yet another half-century in this game. Saud Shakeel continues to play the anchor role and the partnership has reached 80 runs. Pakistan will be hoping these two can bat through the session and if the scoring rate continues to be brisk, they can consider pushing for a win.

FOUR! Loose delivery to start off by Ish Sodhi! This is short and outside off. Sarfaraz Ahmed does not miss out as he pulls this towards deep square leg for four runs.
The afternoon session on the final day is set to begin. Sarfaraz Ahmed and Saud Shakeel stride out to the middle with their blades. The New Zealand players also take the field. It will be Ish Sodhi to start with the ball here.
... Day 5, Session 2 ...
Shan Masood came out to bat with Imam-ul-Haq and both showed positive intent to keep the scoreboard ticking by putting away the loose deliveries. However, Imam-ul-Haq lost his concentration and was dismissed off the bowling of Ish Sodhi while playing a rash shot. Babar Azam and Shan Masood put together a 42-run partnership but Michael Bracewell claimed both the set batters in consecutive overs to put New Zealand well on top in this game. Pakistan will still have hope as long as Sarfaraz Ahmed and Saud Shakeel are still at the crease with both of them looking pretty comfortable in their unbeaten 45-run partnership. Will they be able to pull off a miracle? Or will New Zealand break this partnership early in the second session? Do join us at 2 pm IST (8.30 am GMT) for what could be the last session of this game.
This has been New Zealand’s session as they have conceded 125 runs in 35.1 overs but most importantly claimed 3 crucial wickets to get a stranglehold on the game. They are now five wickets away from what will be a remarkable Test win and thereby clinch the series as well. They still have ample work to do here but they will be confident to get more purchase off the wicket as the day goes by and the ball gets older. Pakistan will be really disappointed with the application they have shown in this inning as several of their batters got off to decent starts but ended up giving away their wickets. They will have to battle hard going forward if they are to save this game with the possibility of a win heavily dependant on the current sixth-wicket partenrship.

Drinks break! New Zealand did get off to a bright start on Day 5 as Ish Sodhi got the wicket of Imam-ul-Haq early on. Tim Southee has been consistent with his lines and lengths. He has bowled a very miserly spell so far. However, Matt Henry and Michael Bracewell haven't created many chances while bowling in tandem. Also, the stand between Azam and Masood has moved to 29 runs. Pakistan will hope these two can bat through till the end of this extended morning session which is set to end at 1 pm IST (7.30 am GMT).

Imam-ul-Haq shimmies down the wicket and goes for the booming drive but ends up connecting with thin air. The ball sneaks past the inside edge, grips and turns in a long way off the deck. A poor shot selection from Imam-ul-Haq on a Day 5 wicket of a Test match and he turns around to watch his stumps shattered. New Zealand need 7 more wickets to win the match.

Ish Sodhi floats this full and outside the off stump. Shan Masood blocks this out towards silly point.
We are all set for the final day of the second and final Test to begin. The umpires are out in the middle and the New Zealand players are in a huddle beyond the boundary line. They spread out and take their positions on the field as Shan Masood joins Imam-ul-Haq to try and help Pakistan save the Test match. Ish Sodhi has one ball to complete in his over and he is ready to begin proceedings. Let's play...
Pitch Report - Waqar Younis says that with the two wickets that fell for Pakistan on Day 4, it has become evident what the bowlers need to do. Mentions that the pace bowlers can get the most out of the pitch if they bowl back of a length and the spinners need to exploit the rough outside the line of the stumps. Claims that it is not lost for Pakistan yet and if they apply themselves they could still survive on this wicket.
Hello and a warm welcome to all! It is now time for Day 5 of the second Test match between Pakistan and New Zealand The Kiwis are in the driving seat coming into the final day as they need to take 8 wickets in almost 90 overs to win this Test match. Pakistan find themselves in a precarious position as they are reeling at 0/2 in the 2.5 overs played. The New Zealand skipper turned on the heat with a wicket in the first over, forcing Pakistan to send Mir Hamza as the nightwatchman but he could not survive till Stumps on Day 4. The Kiwis have a fairly new ball and would hope they get some assistance off the deck. Will the hosts be able to defend with all their might? Or will the Kiwis make the most of the momentum on their side? We shall find out soon. Stay tuned for some enticing Test cricket action.
... DAY 5, SESSION 1 ...
Pakistan did manage to create some chances but they were really poor in the field as they dropped a few catches. Sarfaraz Ahmed was the main culprit as he put down a couple behind the wicket and also missed a simple stumping opportunity. Will the hosts be able to save this match and play for a draw? Will they be able to bat out of their skins and steal a win? Or will New Zealand press home their advantage on the final day? Join us on Friday 6th January at 10.30 am IST (5 am GMT) to find out which way this game goes. Until then, goodbye and cheers!
Right from the start of the day, Pakistan have been chasing the game as they lost their last wicket of the first inning in the first over itself and conceded a lead of 41 runs. Mir Hamza dismissed Devon Conway on a golden duck but Kane Williamson and Tom Latham managed to steady the ship by adding a 109-run partnership. They were both dismissed in consecutive overs off the bowling of Naseem Shah and Abrar Ahmed and Henry Nicholls did not last long either as he fell to Hasan Ali. However, Tom Blundell and Michael Bracewell smothered any hopes Pakistan had of coming back in this game and are now well and truly on top of their opponents.
Tom Blundell and Michael Bracewell came out after tea looking to be watchful and steadily built a 127-run partnership in 190 balls. The former departed on 74 looking to push the scoring rate as Agha Salman also added a wicket under his belt. Michael Bracewell continued the onslaught though and remained unbeaten on 74 when Tim Southee decided to declare setting Pakistan a target of 319. What an outstanding decision it proved to be as they had just three overs to have a crack at the Pakistan openers but the skipper leading from the front claimed the wicket of Abdullah Shafique in the very first over. To make things better, Ish Sodhi dismissed the night watchman Mir Hamza on the last ball of the day.
New Zealand have taken the opportunity to grab the game by the scruff of the neck. They focused on preserving their wickets early on and it was only towards the end that they showed any sort of positive intent. In the end, 126 runs were scored in the 32.5 overs bowled in the final session with New Zealand losing a solitary wicket but they managed to claim two wickets in the three overs they bowled. This puts them in a situation in which they should not lose this game whereas Pakistan will be looking to slow down this game as they know that they will have a mountain to climb.

OUT! CLEANED UP! Ish Sodhi makes sure that his side ends the day on a high. Pakistan lose their second wicket and Mir Hamza is unable to protect his wicket. The change of angle does wonders for Ish Sodhi. It is pushed through quicker, full and outside off. It skidds through and comes in with the arm. Mir Hamza prods and tries to defend it out on his front foot. He gets beaten on the inside edge and the ball goes on to shatter the stumps. PAKISTAN ARE 0/2 AT STUMPS ON DAY 4.

OUT! TIMBER! Huge wicket for New Zealand! This is what the visitors would have been hoping for as they draw first blood just before the close of play! This is bowled on a good length and on an off stump line. The ball keeps really low and goes under the bat of Abdullah Shafique as he looks to block it. The stumps are shattered and Pakistan will be slightly worried here as their opener makes his way back to the pavilion.
