Williamson just looks effortless in everything that he does.

Nicholls making tough runs again. Bit like Bavuma, doesn't pad his stats in easy situations, but often makes a gutsy 50 when it's necessary.
 
Ok now even I’m suspicious of this.
His seven wicket haul came a day after Hughes passed away and the players were very affected by it. Pakistan from memory were in a strong position in their first innings on day one and then simply collapsed to Craig's offspin (possibly didn't want to hang around on the pitch like their NZ counterparts). Still an impressive achievement nonetheless
 
Williamson is all kinds of awesome. Just quietly goes about delivering with no fuss and (while is universally respected) a minimum of the hyperbole that's attached to the performances of Kohli and Smith.

Can see why Arthur gets so frustrated, for all the focus on it and the intermittent improvements the Pakistani fielding let them down again.
 
I can't get a read on where this game is placed. Are both teams happy with the draw? Will NZ try to accelerate and give them enough runs and time to have a go at bowling Pakistan out? Will Pakistan go away from the defensive fields and bowling they adopted in the last session in an effort to bowl NZ relatively cheaply?

Shaping up to be a cracking fifth day of Test cricket, in the third and final Test.

NZ going the tonk, Pakistan got the big wicket on the first ball of the day, and since then it has been mayhem.

Can see Pakistan going for the win when they get the chance to bat. The pitch is still good.

Excellent day's cricket ahead.
 
Patel's got Imam-ul-haq. Looking good for a win, the Pakistan batsmen capable of digging in (Azhar, Shafiq) are already gone.
