Seamer Josh Hazlewood led a blistering Australian pace attack that saw New Zealand crash to 162 all out at tea on day one of the second Test in Christchurch on Friday. Hazlewood claimed figures of 5-31 while Mitchell Starc finished with 3-59 as an unchanged Australia looked to sweep the two-Test series.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The New Zealand innings was boosted by a 55-run stand for the ninth wicket by Matt Henry (29) and Tim Southee (26).<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Australia expected an early breakthrough when captain Pat Cummins put New Zealand into bat on a green-tinged surface, but New Zealand openers Tom Latham and Will Young dug in.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Their dogged resistance saw New Zealand reach 47 in the first 90 minutes before Young was dismissed for 14 and the innings fell apart.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Latham went for 38 and Rachin Ravindra for four, with the last ball before lunch, as New Zealand reached 79 for three before losing five wickets for just 28 runs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Their key batsman Kane Williamson, who received a standing ovation as he arrived at the crease for his milestone 100th Test, could only manage 17 before he was trapped in front by Hazlewood.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Although Williamson sought a review he knew it was a lost cause and started to walk before the three red lights were shown.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Hazlewood also accounted for Latham and Daryl Mitchell (four), both caught by wicketkeeper Alex Carey as well as Ravindra caught by Usman Khawaja at first slip.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The impressive Carey took five catches including Tom Blundell (22) off Cameron Green and Glenn Phillips (two) off Starc who then dismissed Scott Kuggeleijn lbw with his next delivery.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
