a big backlift you've got to get it very very early and er and we we keep mentioning about his eye position too don't we waqar again continues from the city end to harris the lefthander gets a <,> good ball which he plays around to the offside <,> sharp single taken this is just pushed away to <,> short cover and er it's aaqib javed that has to come up from er <,> cover to field and er harris gets that single <,> to give rutherford the strike he's two now harris <,> rutherford is five seventy six for six <,> fifty one short of victory that's going to be a KEY <,> to this effort for new zealanders the running between wickets they're two very good athletes two good movers and er that <,,> delivery was just pushed out of the covers and nine times out of ten <,> so far in the last few seasons or days or this series <&>1:00 <,> er the single hasn't been taken <,> there's er but the they got through there pretty comfortably <,> no problems at all waqar continues from the city end to <,,> rutherford and er this ball is <,> a good length he's forward to it striking it away to <,> extra cover where it's fielded there by <,,> ramez raja <,,><&>5 rutherford five harris two <,> twenty extras <,> j ones caught mushtaba bowled waqar for nineteen parore caught rashid <,> bowled akram for thirty and latham bowled by waqar for no score <,,> wickets at sixty five sixty seven and seventy one so three in a fairly <,> quick space of time just as <,> new zealand look to be <,,> getting themselves organised for the <,> <.>latch last march to victory <,,> still a long way off <,,> they'll have another rally call <,,> waqar to <,> rutherford and rutherford gets one full of length which he DRIVES forcefully <,> but not past ramez again straight to that man <,> at <&>2:00 widish midoff <,,><&>3 no more runs added to the new zealand total seventy six for six it remains in this situation those are the deliveries that er when you make a good contact you look up and you hope they've gone in a gap you're actually <,> not sure where the gap is cos you're concentrating so much on the delivery coming to you and trying to do er a few things right <,> when you make a good contact you anxiously look up to see where it's gone and your your heart drops when it goes straight to a fieldsman and then you hope for a misfield seventy six for six <,> waqar again to rutherford and <,> rutherford comes forward to DRIVE a widish delivery but <,> he made no contact just as well on THAT occasion because there was a very <,> HUGE danger of him getting an edge and being caught behind he wasn't <,,> but er the ball was up there for him to drive just a little bit wider <,> encouraging him to play that stroke <,,><&>9 <&>3:00 it's very much a a rutherford stroke wasn't it er he likes to <,> to hit the ball he likes to play his shots he won't <,> being the the person he is he won't er not play his shots in this situation er he'll just carry on and in his own mind he'll be batting as he normally does and that's er that's not such a bad er policy either waqar again bowling to <,> rutherford <,> and this ball rutherford is short guided away to <,> cover but he won't have a run <,> it's just forward of <,> the point fieldsman mushtar ahmed and he's across very quickly <,> to get it <,> and er <,> there's no run to complete another over as DRINKS <,> come out onto the <,> field after an hour and twelve minutes <,> of the first session today <,> new zealand at seventy six for six so er they've added er how many runs today <{><[>would they word thirty <,,> thirty seven today <,> and <&>4:00 er have lost three wickets <,> the wickets of jones caught mushtaba bowled er waqar for nineteen parore caught rashid bowled akram for thirteen <,> and latham bowled waqar for nought rutherford is five <,> harris is two twenty extras seventy six for six thirty four overs gone and er just the two bowlers used today er wasim akram seventeen overs three maidens four for thirty five waqar younis nine overs two maidens two for sixteen <,> so he's bowled his seven overs today and taken er two for eleven and er <,> he's been er <,> one of the dominant features of this game <[>thirty seven have they <&>4:30 <&>interruption from studio not transcribed <&>7:25 word and er <,> in every quarter and here's akram now bowling to <,> harris first ball after drinks and it's short <,> lifting down the offside doesn't er really take off but harris just <,> shies away from it keeping his <,> hands low enough to watch the ball go over the top of them JUST the way that harris played that ball <,> er he watched it let's give him certainly that he watched it very closely <,> but at the same time just pulling away with the front leg to <.>ge perhaps to get himself er out of the way we'll certainly say <&>8:00 that for him <,> er but it <.>ju looked to be also a wee bit of mild discomfort there <,> and i wonder whether the bowler'll test him out again akram bowls to him and this one is <,> short widish of the off stump and harris <,> leaves it alone through to <,> wicket keeper rashid not er close enough to <,> draw a stroke and moving further down the off side <,,><&>7 well excellent er excellent crowd for the er <,,> full four days of this test really haven't they er people from the waikato and i suppose further afield have <,> supported this i know there's people from er the wellington region and further south who've <,> come along to watch some cricket here's <,> akram again goes wide of the crease to harris this time <,> plays it away to cover and er a sharp single taken <,> ramez throws at the stumps at the bowlers end there'll be an overthrow as the backing up was not done cleanly by <,> javed miandad so ONE has been turned into two <,,> BONUS run for new zealand seventy eight for six <,> harris goes to four <,,><&>3 all so important aren't they every run and that's why whereas quick singles can be <&>9:00 of benefit <,> that you can actually put so much pressure on the field that you get some extras <,> and that certainly was an extra in fact javed didn't do too badly at all to er to get er some hands on it and to to stop the four overthrows he had a bit of territory to cover <,> and er <,> ramez had to throw <,> he actually eased off it in the throw at the finish because er he was a bit worried about the fact that probably the batsman was in anyway akram again bowls to <,> harris and harris DRIVES NICE SHOT <,> down the ground for four that's a VERY good shot from harris <,> it was JUST tossed up <,> and it shows how quick he is because he saw it immediately <,> got the length of it right <,> and hammered it down through midoff for four <,> he goes to nine to EIGHT <,> and new zealand to eighty two that's a bonus one for them too well he is a big driver isn't he harris we talked about that backlift he LIKES to get onto the front foot <,> and free the arms a wee bit <,> he's <&>10:00 certainly made a good solid contact there's er the midoff is fairly wide <,> and just the second boundary of the innings who did the other one come from <,,> parore through point wasn't it yeah <,> that's right <,,> so there haven't been too many up the ground have there laughs <,,><&>3 eighty two for six <,,><&>3 the er <,,><&>4 over continues from er wasim akram to <,> harris <,> the predictable bouncer <,> short <,> and seaming across down the leg side he ducked underneath it rather <,> awkwardly but er was well clear of it as the ball went through to rashid and er it remains at eighty two for six the ask is getting under fifty now i'm sure <,> akram wouldn't be that pleased with himself with that full pitched ball because it just gave er harris the room to free his arms up RIGHT in the slot for <,> for chris harris and normally when akram bowls that full pitched ball it's very straight <,,><&>3 here he comes again bowling to <,> harris and <&>11:00 harris is forward defending getting RIGHT in behind it watchful playing it up past the bowler <,> not past salim malik who comes across and now another word from brian aldridge to <,> er wasim akram telling him where he's er landing on the <,> pitch in his follow through as he completes another over how many times can he be told <,,><&>3 eighty two for six with rutherford on <,> five harris on eight and er wasim akram now has <,> eighteen overs three maidens four for forty one six runs from that over and while all that was happening chris harris was dancing down the wicket chipping somebody <,> or something over midwicket <,> presumably for six <,> but er yes perhaps just a freeing of the mind the relaxation technique <,> or something i didn't think it had a lot to do with facing AKRAM but er well everyone to their own thing as the proof is in the pudding or whatever <,> but VERY strange very strange indeed laughs <,,><&>3 yes john laughs <&>12:00 it was though you don't often see a a a batsman go down after er sort of playing a solid defensive stroke to a fast bowler to a fast bowler and then and then PRACTISE <,> moving down the wicket he took a STEP to it TOO yeah he <{><[>he charged it and chipped it <[>stepped down the wicket yeah laughs well it's eighty two for six here the target for new zealand one twenty seven and waqar younis continuing from the southern end <,> ken rutherford the new zealand captain in strike two slips forward short leg those are the men in the catching positions as waqar younis bowls to rutherford he's in behind it and plays it back to the bowler <,> very confidently er ken rutherford in behind that ball <,> he's on five <,> harris is eight <,> there are twenty extras a very significant contribution <,,> out of eighty two runs yeah i mentioned the extras earlier <,> today there's just a high percentage of them <,> but you know in these sorts of situations also peter you <,> you only need one good over and suddenly the thing changes doesn't it i mean it <,> and often <&>13:00 you're tempted <,> of course that temptation will have passed now with new zealand losing those wickets <,> but you're often tempted just to er to play a few strokes <,> and perhaps get ten <,> fifteen runs off an over <,> if it's possible <,,> waqar younis then in to <,> rutherford he comes forward again he's looking better and better ken rutherford just leaning into the shot waqar younis <,,> gestured to him after he'd played the ball back to him <,> as if to say er <,> just watch yourself sonny <,> there might be a cricket one coming up here <,> extra it may not have been er gesturing to <,> to rutherford that's the other option i <{1><[1>agree that could have been an option <{2><[2>but er i think he might have been er offering some more fielding advice to his captain <,> which he does regularly <[1>sure <,,> yeah <,,> yeah <[2>word javed word appealed it although he was pointing down the wicket the captain's at backward square yep <,> and er and often lots of things are directed at the wicketkeeper as well sure <,> it's eighty two for six <,,> younis running in quickly again <,> steve dunn's the umpire at that end <,> rutherford is forward <,> <&>14:00 not quite the same confidence there but er the ball <,> from the inside half of the bat onto the pad as he came forward and running away on the off side <,> that delivery which er cleaned out rod latham i see was clocked on the <.>r radar at one hundred and thirty nine k <,> which is about the fastest delivery of the MATCH <,,><&>3 yes it certainly er was in a hurry to get there and it got there laughs eighty two for six harris eight <,> and rutherford five <,> new zealand searching <,> for their third victory over pakistan in new zealand <,> the previous two wins in test matches came <,> in the eighty four eighty five series <,> wins in auckland and wins <,> in dunedin <,,> waqar younis <,> bowls to rutherford he's forward that one bounced a little more <,> but he was over the top of it nicely played it out square of the off side <,> no runs though from <,> fourteen PREVIOUS test matches in new zealand <,> against pakistan new zealand's only managed the two victories <,> that goes back to the first games between the two countries in this <&>15:00 country in the early months of nineteen sixty five <,,> so the two wins achieved in successive games <,> in that series of eighty four eighty five <,> a win in auckland by an innings the game all over inside four days there <,> and then that NERVE tingler in dunedin <,,><&>3 with ewen chatfield and <,> jeremy coney <,> taking new zealand home to a famous win <,> eighty two for six here in hamilton as waqar younis bowls to rutherford he HOOKS <,> away for FOUR over square leg <,,><&>3 a BOLD confident shot from the new zealand captain for this match waqar younis dropped it in short rutherford ROCKING onto the back foot <,> hit it away in the air but very SAFELY <,> and four runs to rutherford takes him to NINE and new zealand to eighty SIX for six <,,> good early backlift er from rutherford got him in a situation where he really did play that <&>16:00 shot VERY very well <,> stood up BRAVELY allowed the ball to come through and if he didn't make contact it was going to hit him <,> er probably in the sternum area and <,> but he didn't er he played it very well eyes on the ball everything was good and i think waqar younis is er he's bowled a few overs this morning <,> and he's starting to realise and er remember that this is a fourth day pitch <,> and that the ball isn't coming on as quickly as it was in the first eighty six for six <,> younis again to <,> rutherford comes forward he's very confident in behind it again <,> after dropping the ball short in the over i see miandad went from orthodox square leg out to <,> er DEEP backward square leg <,> almost on the boundary but the over completed by waqar younis that's what eight in succession from <.>hid him today <,> ten over two maidens <,> two for twenty his complete figures <,> new zealand eighty six for six with rutherford nine and harris eight <,,><&>4 that's a lot of overs for er for ANY fast bowler to be bowling in one spell <,> and waqar younis at the moment is walking VERY very <&>17:00 slowly down to er his position at <,> fine leg to harris and third man to to rutherford er and he'll be he'll be feeling it but he's he's bowled beautifully again today <,> he's er got the wicket of jones <,> an excellent catch from er asif mushtaba <,> and then the the wicket of latham with er a VERY very quick delivery clocked at a hundred and thirty nine kilometres <,> er that moved in and er hit <,> middle stump so direct that it NEVER disturbed the off or the leg stump <&>17:30
