Michael: "Bumrah has a test batting average of 3 and highest score of 10.Boult has an average of 15 and a test fifty - while Bumrah hasn't scored 50 runs over his entire test career yet. Surely no comparison!" -- He recently made his maiden first-class fifty, in an entertaining, Boult-esque manner, but yes, he has work to do to catch up.
Shahzad Iqbal: "Enjoying conversation between Rizwan and Yasir Shah in Pashto."
Jiju Ninan: "400 and above is a good score. With Boult, Wagner, Jamieson and Southee, NZ have a good pace attack. Pakistan will do well even to save this Test."
4.57pm New Zealand have 431 on the board. It's a sizeable total, but is it a total that will enable them to bat just once? There didn't seem to be a whole lot of help on offer for the Pakistan quicks today, but how will New Zealand's attack go? There could be some work to do for Mitchell Santner as well, given how much turn Yasir Shah was getting towards the end of this innings. Big job for Pakistan's batsmen to do too, of course. We'll see how they go in about ten minutes. Pakistan will have 20 overs to face today, weather and over rate permitting.

Four men on the leg-side boundary as Yasir goes around the wicket to Wagner.
J I Pearce: "Kane could be quite a useful bowler on this surface."

Around the wicket now.
Micah: "Trent Boult is an absolute beauty to watch when batting, never fails to entertain."
Shravan: "Boulty or Bumrah? We'll know if Mumbai Indians are even 9 wickets down."
Looks like slip has disappeared.
Afridi to Wagner. We've not seen this for a while. Slip, gully, a fine third man, and I assume a couple of men on the leg-side boundary for the hook.
