However, a half-century from Tom Blundell steadied the ship a bit for the Kiwis but a couple of quick blows from Abrar Ahmad had them reeling at 345/9.

Back in October 1997, Azhar Mahmood and Mushtaq Ahmed put on 151 runs for the 10th wicket against South Africa in Rawalpindi. Henry took the attack to the Pakistani bowlers as he notched his fifty off 42 balls. Therefore, the Black Caps duo broke a 58-year-old record.

Kiwi bowler Matt Henry stunned Pakistan with a blistering fifty on Day 2 of the ongoing second Test.

Henry's 3rd Test 50 & Patel registering his highest Test score in the process on After starting the day with an overnight score of 309-6 New Zealand were soon reduced to 345-9.

Pakistan bowlers managed to bowl out New Zealand on 449 and then scored 154/3 when the umpires called stumps on Day 2.

Imam-ul-Haq and Saud Shakeel avoided further wickets with an unbeaten 55-run partnership for the fourth wicket. Babar looked confident from the beginning but was unfortunate to get run out for 24. Ajaz then dismissed Shan Masood wicket in the 11th over to give Kiwis early control of the match. Abrar removed Ajaz in the second session to end the frustration for the bowlers. After an even battle on Day 1, New Zealand resumed their innings from 309/6 with Tom Blundell and Ish Sodhi in the middle. Pakistan managed to bowl out the visitors on 449 and then scored 154/3 by stumps.

New Zealand surged ahead in the second Test against Pakistan in Karachi after a stubborn last-wicket stand and disciplined bowling effort on Tuesday.

“It should not have happened but sometimes the last wicket becomes tough, it gets teasing and wherever you bowl they get runs. “No doubt that last-wicket 100-run partnership was not beneficial for us,” Pakistan batting coach Mohammad Yousuf said. As was the case in the first Test that ended in a draw with the Kiwis denied victory on day five due to bad light, Pakistan have been on the back foot in this Test as well and will require a massive effort in the first innings to put any kind of pressure on the visitors. Shan Masood continued his miserable form, cutting spinner Patel to point fielder Devon Conway on 20. “Very happy with how we went about our work,” said Henry. And then once we got the field change, we tried to spend some time and actually put together quite a strong performance with the ball.”

Imam ul Haq led Pakistan's resistance with the bat after early blows threatened to derail their reply to New Zealand's 449.

Only off the 42nd ball did Shakeel get off the mark but it allowed Imam to breathe easy at the other end, as the runs began to flow. It resulted in both Babar and Imam being stranded near the striker's end and Pakistan losing their third with less than 100 on board. Patel, after being hit for three boundaries by Shan Masood, had the last laugh by having him caught at point.
