A day of missed opportunities for the Black Caps in their test with Sri Lanka in Christchurch.The visitors have pulled off a fighting batting performance to extend the test to a fifth day, making 231 for six at stumps.Black Caps wicketkeeper BJ Watling says after starting the day with two wickets down, they were hoping to do more with the ball in hand.
A test-hundred on home turf for Tom Latham.
The Black Cap batsman's notched his eighth test century, grabbing 176 off 370 deliveries in the second test with Sri Lanka in Christchurch.
It's his second of the series, having made 264 in the first test in Wellington.
An extraordinary performance from Trent Boult on day two of the Black Caps test with Sri Lanka in Christchurch.The fast-bowler's bagged six wickets in a 15 ball span to dismiss the visitors for 104 early in the day, before the hosts were able to pile on the runs before stumps.
New Zealand believe they fought back to gain parity at the end of day one in the second cricket test against Sri Lanka in Christchurch.Having been sent in to bat the Black Caps were bowled out for just 178, before taking four Sri Lankan wickets with the ball to leave the visitors at 88 for four at stumps.Tim Southee, who scored 68 with the bat, led the New Zealand bowlers with figures of 29 for three.He says they want to make the most of the pitch while it still provides some swing.Southee says they would have liked to take one more wicket, but that makes the first hour today more important.
Tom Latham batted his way into the record books against Sri Lanka at the Basin Reserve – and then kept going.
A flawless day's batting saw Latham rack up a phenomenal 264 not out - the sixth-highest score in New Zealand test cricket history, as he completely bossed a Sri Lankan bowling attack all over the famous Wellington ground.
It was the largest total by any test batsman in 2018, and Latham remained unbowed at the end of it, recording the highest score of anyone to carry their bat in test cricket. 489 balls and a marathon 694 minutes later, Latham walked off to a standing ovation as New Zealand totalled a mammoth 578, with Latham responsible for 45 per cent of their tremendous tally.
In response, Sri Lanka once again collapsed, slumping to 20-3 before stumps, still trailing by a ridiculous 276 runs. In just 12 overs after Latham walked off, Trent Boult trapped Danushka Gunathilaka lbw for three, Tim Southee bowled Dhananjaya de Silva for a duck, and Dimuth Karunaratne sprayed a wild hook shot down the throat of Boult for Southee's second scalp, and eighth of the match.
While the weather forecast threatens rain on day five, it would be a shock if Sri Lanka even made it that far, requiring a Latham-esque knock of their own for the test to end in anything but an absolute thrashing.
Frankly, Sri Lanka must be sick of the sight of the Basin. The last time they were here, Kane Williamson hit 242 – somehow now the third best score against Sri Lanka in Wellington, after Martin Crowe's 299 and Latham's effort.
Four of New Zealand's top six individual innings have now come against Sri Lanka, and Latham's knock was as good as any of them. Resuming on 121, Latham barely offered the visitors a chance in his second day at the crease in what could be a career-defining knock.
The 26-year-old opener cruised along at a comfortable pace, accumulating with ease, playing some textbook cover drives, and generally compiling a definitive opener's innings.
After struggling on the recent tour of the United Arab Emirates – averaging just 16.5 – Latham talked about still having complete trust in his game, and he displayed all of that confidence as he pummeled the poor Sri Lankan attack.
He was never rash in his shot-making, and was the ever-present in a slew of demoralising partnerships. He added 114 with Henry Nicholls, who continued his strong form with a solid 50, and then combined for 73 with Colin de Grandhomme, who punched a customarily quick 49.
As they plundered, the records started to fall. Latham brought up his 200 in 412 balls, clipping a single through mid-wicket, becoming the 15th Black Cap to notch a test double century.
He had bigger things in his sights though, and started to hit out as the tail was exposed, becoming just the eighth New Zealander to reach 250. A six saw him move past Glenn Turner's 259 on the all-time list, and he surpassed Stephen Fleming's 262 before he eventually ran out of partners, on 264, after 157 overs of brilliance.
The Basin crowd rose to their feet to applaud him off, and the Black Caps bowlers then made sure that the innings he'll remember forever will surely end in the dominant victory it undoubtedly deserves.
