6.2 to DJ Mitchell, skied into the off side! Scholtz from the blue, Namibia have a second! Mitchell skips down but gets nowhere near the pitch and sends a yawning leading edge over cover, where it is smartly just about taken by van Lingen running in. 43/2

4.1 to MJ Guptill, drilled to mid-off, Guppy's gone! Pitched up and he was looking to go up over the off side, but the ball skids on and hits low on the bat, he can't get the elevation and Trumpelmann stoops to claim a simple catch. Namibia bag themselves the bug fush. 30/1

12.1 to KS Williamson, played on! Erasmus gets his opposite number. It was fuller but a touch too outside off, Williamson once again eyed that shorter boundary with the slog sweep but this time, the ball hit the inner half of the bat before clattering into the stumps. 81/3

14.3 to D Wiese, celebrappeal from Southee. And the finger goes up as well. A length ball around off that nipped back in to rap Wiese on the pads. He was stuck on the crease and failed to get his bat down in time. He thinks of reviewing it but decides against it in the end. 86/4
17.5 to ZE Green, fails to repeat it. Another length ball, Green once again goes for the pull but this time he hits it in the direction of long-on, where Boult comes in and takes a tumbling catch. 102/5
402025.00121030
18.2 to JN Loftie-Eaton, a dolly by Guptill's standards. A slower one, banged into the pitch, Loftie-Eaton backs away and forehands it towards mid-off. Guptill moves back and sideways to take it over his right shoulder. 103/6
18.5 to CG Williams, fuller outside off, goes back and throws his bat at it, looking to go leg side. But all he gets is a thick outside edge and Phillips pouches it at backward point. 105/7
402506.25143100
402015.00122000
8.1 to SJ Baard, cleaned him up! Some turn for Santner from the perfect length and Baard is caught playing across the line. Smacks into the top of middle and leg, Namibia's other opener hears the death rattle. Two in six balls for New Zealand. 51/2
10616.0010000
7.2 to M van Lingen, bowled him, neck and crop! Neesham rascals one straight through van Lingen as he swipes across the line... touch short, scrambled seam and it skids on fiendishly to clatter middle and leg. The batter collapses to his haunches and inspects the damage. NZ needed that. 47/1
302217.3390220
9.2 to MG Erasmus, nicks a low leggie to the keeper! Paul Wilson is quick to raise the finger as Erasmus goes back and pokes at one just leaving him in the channel. Sodhi pops up with yet another wicket, the NZ net is tightening. 55/3
