Yes absolutely Pakistan bowler show his potential, strong performance by the pacer Naseem shah who got two wicket of skipper Williamson and Latham while the new emerging all rounder Agha Salman bowl some mistery swings and got three wicket. While Abrar got just one wicket, now 6 player are down so we can expect 450 around score from kiwi, which will be not a easy target for Pakistan batter, but let see what happen

The off-spinner Salman brought the team back into the competition, taking three wickets just when Pakistan were almost failing in the 2nd Test match. Naseem Shah also played an important role and took two wickets. New Zealand have lost 6 wickets, Pakistan can give short target if they can be bowled out by tomorrow. It is not possible to say how the condition of the Pakistani batsmen will be according to the pitch. If the target is small, there is less concern about winning the match and the players do not need to take extra pressure. If they give a target of around 450 runs then Pakistan will be able to maintain that situation because we have seen big scores in previous tests as well.

I would also like to say that this was a great performance, well, probably not great, but certainly a good performance from Pakistan. The Pakistani bowlers have certainly done well. But the problem is the track is still very friendly for batting. And I think there it does not feel like the performances of Pakistani bowlers. But even in a track like this, I think they have done quite well. And we have to give credit to them for that. I am actually really hoping that the track is going to behave differently from what it has been doing right now. Because otherwise, it is going to be another test match that is going to end up in a draw.

On Day 2, currently, NZ's score is 400+/9. still, they are scoring with full stamina... waiting to see the Pakistan part now...

LOL.. Pakistan bowling is a joke. New Zealand were struggling at 345/9 and I was expecting the Pak bowlers to restrict the Kiwis to less than 350. And now they are inching towards the 400 mark. Matt Henry is treating Naseem Shah as if he is some club player. These two (Matt Henry and Ajaz Patel) have added 41 runs so far for the last wicket. There was a lot of controversy when it was announced that Matt Henry will be part of the playing XI. But now he has justified his inclusion, even before he has bowled a single ball Grin

Maybe possible, but not probable. They need another 91 runs to reach the 400 mark and tail end batsmen Ish Sodhi is out there with Tom Blundell. After Sodhi they have Tim Southee, Matt Henry and Ajaz Patel to come and these three are all genuine tailenders. Naseem seems to be in good touch and if Mir Hamza and Hasan Ali can support him from the other end, then Pakistan maybe able to wrap up everything in less than an hour and restrict New Zealand to a total of less than 350 (which is still a formidable score given the weaknesses in Pakistani batting right now).

NZ are 374/9 at the moment and its still a good first inning score. Henry and Patel are on the crease, Henry is playing aggressively as he has scored 27 runs on just 23 balls. 6 wickets are shared between two spinners Agha and Abrar this tells that there is something for spinners in this pitch. Hassan Ali and Hamza so far are wicket less while naseem shah has got 3 wickets,

The winning chance for New Zealand is high, but something unexpected happening in between can change the match as Pakistan is in the Home Ground. New Zealand have already scored 300+ runs. In tomorrow sessions they'll try to score more 100 runs and keep the pressure high on Pakistan. In this test series the chance for draw is high than Pakistan winning the match.

New Zealand was in a very strong position, but during the third session they lost too many wickets. At one point they were 234/1. And from that position they collapsed to 279/6, with Naseem Shah and Agha Salman picking up wickets. Abrar Ahmed and Hasan Ali were disappointing, picking up just one wicket and conceding 155 runs in between them. The 7th wicket partnership between Tom Blundell and Ish Sodhi is worth 40 runs till now. If New Zealand can get to somewhere around 400, then it will be a good total on this pitch. But it looks unlikely now.

400 runs is possible and it will be not easy for Pakistan to chase those runs. The pitch does support bowlers and is not like the previous pitch which did not have anything for them. If Naseem Shah can take wickets then there are good seamers in the NZ side who can also utilize this pitch. I think the chance of Kiwis winning this match is pretty good.

New Zealand and Pakistan share the day. It was great to see Pakistan fight back, particularly in the last session, after New Zealand started well. However, 309/6 is not a bad score. The first hour of tomorrow's match will be crucial for both teams. From there, we'll know whether the match will end in a draw or not.

Pakistan had luckily escaped the defeat in the first test match. Pakistan was in the bad situation during the first two sessions of today's match. The third session was lucky for them. Pakistan players won't be able to score 300 runs if the pitch behaves in the same way tomorrow. I think that New Zealand will win this test match. I'm not expecting to see the draw again.

I also think that New Zealand will win today's match, Because New Zealand still have four wickets left and Tom Blunwell and Ish Sodhi are on strike. If we total the runs of these two players in the last match, they would have gone over 100. So I think if they perform better in this match then New Zealand's total run will be a big score in this match too. And what you already mentioned is the pitch but same so I think the possibility of Pakistan losing this time will be more and the possibility of New Zealand winning is much more.

258 on the first day and with 4 wickets gone it seems the Pakistani bowlers were able to restrict the agressive batting of NZ. I still feel by the end of today the Kiwis batters will easily score 300+ runs. In case if they lose all of their wickets then still 300+ score would not be easy for Pakistani batters to chase knowing the inconsistent batting line up.

Finally good balling from Pakistan and they control Newzealand runs to an extend , already 4 wickets gone and 260 runs. Newzealand can end this day in 300 runs maximum but hopefully Pakistani batting lineup could chase a normal target.

In the 2nd Test match, Pakistan vs New Zealand, both teams played a very good game. Now New Zealand batted and scored 181 runs in 44 overs. New Zealand is batting very well.

Strong comback by Pakistani pacer bowler Naseem shah take a first wicket of T.latham by L.B.W at 71 runs and broke the strong partnership of both kiwi opener, after that Williamson replace him, now Pakistan need more wicket in order to hold new Zealand from big target. Especially the Skipper kane Williamson who score double century against Pakistan In first test match. now kiwi has 205 runs in 52 overs while just 1 wicket down .

Are you serious dude in saying "strong come back by Naseem Shah". I can see only one wicket of NZ going down and that too on 134 runs, right now NZ is 234/1 and they are in full command at the moment.

They have full command of game in early but not now, as I told you strong comback of of Naseem shah and he did it , he take first wicket of Latham who score century against Pakistan in previous match and now he take wicket of the new Zealand Skipper kane Williamson who score double century, now agha Salman take 3rd wicket also, now kiwi has 253 in 67 over. It's time for Pakistan to hold Thier nerves because all set batsman are gone now they just need to hold them around 350.

Pakistan actually had a strong grasp on this test match so far. New Zealand did not face any problems in my opinion. I think New Zealand is very confident right now, and after the last test match, I almost half expected it. New Zealand must be frustrated after not being able to win the last test match. And they are also going to be very determined to win this one. So far New Zealand is playing very strongly and at the end of the day, 306 runs at the loss of six wickets is not a bad score to get.

Since New Zealand has the runs on the board, this means that they have the advantage. New Zealand has scored over 300 runs and they still have four wickets in hand. Since we know that the Pakistan team is weak in batting, it is very likely they will be under pressure when they start to chase this score.

Devon Conway scored 122 runs and it helped England score a reasonably good score on day 1 of this final test match.

I cannot say that New Zealand have faced too many problems so far in this test match. I hope the track changes its nature and going forward in the test match. Otherwise, it is going to be a problem for Pakistan again. So far New Zealand is scoring quite freely. I don’t know why the Pakistan Cricket board is so much hellbent on creating tracks like this.

This could be a problem for Pakistan again since the pitch offers little to bowlers. With Pakistan's fleet of bowlers, I still don't understand why they prepare such pitches.

Newzealand looking good at the moment. The opening pair has already scored 80 runs. Tim Latham is on 42 and he might reach his half century. Conway is on 37 and both batters have a strike rate which is above 60. Assuming these two continue till lunch Inam hoping a score of 200+. Pakistan not looking good at the moment. Their bowlers are unable to create any pressure at the moment.

By losing 5 wickets in the last session Kiwis just threw away all the advantages they had.

They can only blame themselves, at one time the stage was set for a big total of 450-500. Pak's spin did most of the damage but credit goes to Naseem, he was the one who created the pressure on Kiwi's batter. After the first day of play, Pakistan would be a happier team and the opposition will lick their wounds.

6 wikcets gone and only 2 overs left for today's play. Pakistan are really happy with there bowling today, as NZ were looking to score somewhere 350. Agha and Naseem did the job for Pakistan. Pakistan must try to bowl out NZ by 350 as Pakistan don't have strong batting that can chase 350+.

The New Zealand batsmen were in a very strong position in the first and second sessions but came into the third session with a dominant performance from the Pakistani bowlers. New Zealand's score is currently close to 300 runs but they have already lost 6 wickets. But if the second day starts well tomorrow and gets through the first two sessions, New Zealand's total of 450 won't be too bad.

Pakistan vs New Zealand 2nd Test match Pakistan did not do very well in the beginning but after getting the wickets of Tom Latham and
Devon Conway they managed to pick up two more wickets soon. Currently, New Zealand's collection is 269 runs for 4 wickets. If no more wickets are lost today then there is no doubt that the score of the match will be big. It will not be very easy for Pakistan to defeat such a big score of New Zealand. But it is expected that Pakistan can get more wickets today.
