2nd Test: Labuschagne Saves Australia After Hazlewood, Starc Bowl Out New Zealand For 162
ICC World Test Championship: Josh Hazlewood (5-31) claimed his 12th five-wicket haul in his 70th appearance and Mitchell Starc overtook fellow quick Dennis Lillee as Australia bowled out New Zealand for a paltry 162 before Marnus Labuschagne struck an unbeaten 45 to steady the visitors' innings on the opening day of the second Test here on Friday.
After skipper Pat Cummins won the toss and elected to field, Starc started the ball rolling for Australia by sending back Will Young for 14 as New Zealand lost their first wicket for 47.
The New Zealand batting crumbled against some brilliant bowling by Hazlewood and Starc as they shared eight wickets between them. Hazlewood started his assault on New Zealand's first innings by sending back Tom Latham (38), getting him to edge behind to Alex Carey and then struck another blow in quick succession by getting allrounder Rachin Ravindra for four. Daryl Mitchell too fell to him for four, caught by Carey as he used his swing to great effect. He claimed the wicket of Kane Williamson, trapping him LBW for 17 off 37 before completing his 12th five-wicket haul by getting Matt Henry caught behind for 29.
