1st Test: Jacob Duffy's Five-for Hand New Zealand A Handy Lead On Day 2
Jacob Duffy: Medium-pacer Jacob Duffy’s maiden five-wicket haul in Tests put New Zealand firmly in control on the second day of the first Test against the West Indies at Hagley Oval in Christchurch on Wednesday.
His 5 for 34, combined with Matt Henry’s three wickets, bowled West Indies out for 167 in reply to New Zealand’s first-innings total of 231. By stumps, the hosts had moved to 32 for no loss in their second innings, extending their lead to 96.
West Indies had begun the day by needing just three balls to wrap up New Zealand’s innings, Zak Foulkes edging Jayden Seales down the leg side. But Foulkes struck immediately with the ball too, removing John Campbell with the first ball of the second over as Will Young dived to his left at third slip to complete the catch.
