Didn't seem to have much of an impact there though! Zimbabwe 7/3 with Bond holding figures of 1/3.

Good partnership forming here, but if New Zealand can break it Taibu and Streak are the only really capable batsmen after him, with debutant Dabengwa possibly after them so these two batsmen will really have to stay together for quite a while if Zimbabwe are to reach 200.

Or just smack Chris Martin. That was twelve off the over just now. Go Brendan Taylor. :)

That could work, and indeed it has. Vettori on now, will be interesting to see how they handle his bowling.

Wishart will be annoyed with himself after making such a good start.

Very good catch by Astle though.

Seems that Vettori is trying to pretend he still has a beard, the white zinc isn't terribly convincing though.

Bond having a field day.

Code: 
26.3 Bond to Streak, OUT: full in length, outside off and hold his line,
        Streak pushes at it, thick outside edge to keeper, Bond on a hat-
        trick!

       Zimbabwe 74/6, Partnership of 0
       HH Streak  c McCullum b Bond  0 (1b 0x4 0x6)
       T Taibu 0* (19b) SE Bond 6.3-2-11-5

  26.2 Bond to Taylor, OUT: Gone! short and wide outside off, goes for the
        cut shot, thick outside edge to keeper, McCullum makes no mistake,
        Bonds strikes again and gets his 50th wicket in test cricket!

       Zimbabwe 74/5, Partnership of 9
       BRM Taylor  c McCullum b Bond  37 (67b 8x4 0x6)
       T Taibu 0* (19b) SE Bond 6.2-2-11-4

He missed the hattrick, though. Still, 5 for 11? Still four wickets for the taking? Nice.

Bond has bowled very well, with all due respect to Zimbabwe I'm looking forward to see how he does in the ODIs against India in the tri-series and the ODI series in South Africa after that.

Vettori deserves a wicket or two, he's bowled brilliantly. Taibu has been in all sorts of trouble.
