Foulkes Savours ‘awesome’ Test Debut After Record-breaking Match Haul Against Zimbabwe
Queens Sports Club: Zakary Foulkes admitted his ‘awesome’ record-breaking Test debut for New Zealand against Zimbabwe hasn’t really sunk in yet, but added it was awesome for him to be out there and helping his team get a 2-0 series win.
On Saturday, New Zealand recorded their biggest ever Test victory after thrashing Zimbabwe by an innings and 359 runs at Queens Sports Club to seal a 2-0 series sweep. Foulkes was the standout performer on Day Three, taking a five-wicket haul as Zimbabwe were bowled out for 117 in their second innings.
Foulkes finished with match figures of 9-75, which is the best overall haul by a New Zealand bowler on Test debut, surpassing Will O’Rourke’s 9-93 against South Africa in Hamilton in 2024. “It still hasn't really kicked in, to be honest. It's all happened pretty quickly. It was awesome to be out there with the guys. I don't really know too much else to say. “
