MH: Hello and welcome for the 2nd day of the test match between these two sides, South Africa and New Zealand here at Johannesburg under a clear clear sky. Yesterday we saw the home side being bowled out by the Kiwiz for 257. However South Africa themselves did well in their bowling dismissing Papps early in the New Zealand 1st innings. At close of day 1, the kiwiz had scored 7 for the loss of no wicket.
The players should be out any moment now. Let us join the action, and in the commentary box it is Robin Jackman along side Barry Richards.
BR: Thanks Mike. So as we speak, the New Zealand batsman are walking to the middle. The South Africans have already taken to the field. South Africa will want to pick up early wickets and not let the New Zealand batsman settle. 257 is not a big score to defend.
So it is going to be Pollock bowling to Stephen Fleming.
Play starts......Play ends
New Zealand 143 all out at 3:24 PM on Day 2.
MH: Some superb bowling from the home side and some ordinary batting from the visitors has seen the later been bowled out for just 143. Now let us go through the New Zealand innings today.
