Friday's draw broke both team's four-match losing streaks that included Pakistan's 3-0 whitewash at the hands of England and its aggressive style.

“This (pitch) here at the moment, it does look different than the first test,” said New Zealand batting coach Luke Ronchi, who has experience of playing in the country for Pakistan Super League franchise Islamabad United. New chief selector Shahid Afridi and a former PCB curator were overlooking the pitch preparation for the past two days. The flat and dry pitches remained a focal point throughout Pakistan’s home test matches. “We are deliberating upon preparing a pitch that may help bowlers and batsmen alike,” Afridi said.

Preview: Pakistan and New Zealand will be targeting a much-awaited test victory and leave a disappointing 2022 behind in red-ball cricket when they lock horns in the second test of their two-match series from Monday. New Zealand had made a strong bid to chase down 138 in the last hour of the first test on Friday after Pakistan captain Babar Azam made a daring declaration before poor visibility halted the Black Caps at 61-1 in the eighth over to draw the game. England swept away New Zealand in the summer before handing Pakistan its first-ever 3-0 defeat at home last month through its relentless aggressive batting on flat and slow-turning pitches.

Latham, Conway frustrate Pakistan with century stand in opening ... (ESPNcricinfo.com)

Runs came at a good pace too with Pakistan bowlers toiling for wickets.

That summed up the session for the hosts, who had brought in Naseem and Hasan on a pitch with good bounce and carry. The first 11 overs had fetched 54, before a quiet period followed, with Hasan tightening his lines, and Abrar slowing it down in the air. That began a string of boundaries to follow: Conway hit two off Mir Hamza next over by driving and slashing, before Latham also cut and drove Naseem, capitalising each time the bowler went either too short or too full even as he had chosen to go around the wicket already.

PAK vs NZ: Follow for all the live updates, score and highlights of the second Test between Pakistan and New Zealand.

Pakistan was finally able to stem New Zealand’s flow in the evening as it took five wickets in the final session, with Agha Salman claiming the scalps of Conway, Henry Nicholls and Daryl Mitchell. “It’s been a good ride so far, I’ve only played a handful of test games so it’s nice to get the opportunity to play and contribute for the team,” Conway, whose century took him past 1,000 test runs, told reporters. Conway, who scored a total of 110 runs in the first Test, hit 16 boundaries and one six in his 191-ball knock to notch his fourth century in test cricket.

Pakistan vs New Zealand, 2nd Test (Cricbuzz)

Pakistan vs New Zealand, 2nd Test. Day 2: 1st Session. NZ - 416/9 (118.3). CRR: 3.51. Batting, R(B), 4s, 6s, SR. Matt Henry*, 49(41), 6, 2, 119.51. Ajaz Patel, 21(43), 3, 0, 48.84. Bowling, O, M, R, W. Agha Salman*, 20.3, 2, 60, 3.

89.5Ish Sodhi to Abrar Ahmed, no run, appeal for LBW, but the impact was outside off - slid through just outside off and beat Abrar on the back-foot prod. The umpires have a chat and the light is still good for one more Sodhi over New Zealand started the day as the favourites to win, they ended the day a wicket away - but in between, there was some riveting stuff, none more so from Sarfaraz Ahmed, this was his comeback series, this was the first series he was playing at home, and he ended the series as the highest run-scorer, with 3 fifties and the best reserved for the last day, a stunning 4th Test hundred. Player of the Series - It was a great comeback, I've been part of the team for a long while, but I was waiting for a chance in the playing XI. We just wanted to keep it simple and see where it takes us, we needed a big partnership and that's what we got in the middle-order. The plan was to play according to the merit of the ball, a few more runs here and there, the result could have been different. It was a dream comeback from Sarfi bhai, we kept backing him and the way he did when the opportunity came, it's very heartening to see. We got ourselves to push for a win but Sarfaraz played with intent and took the game away from us in the second session. Pakistan captain - The plan was to be careful and assess according to the situation. We will try to chip in with some wins in the ODI's. We knew from the nature of the surface that things could happen late in the Test, but the way Sarfaraz batted took the game away from us. On the other hand, New Zealand's defence of the 2021 crown was shambolic, but they'll hope to at least end it well against Sri Lanka at home in March.

The reactions certainly say so - yes, a thin top-edge and Blundell didn't stay low enough to hold on. 30.2 M Bracewell to Saud Shakeel, no run, was there an edge? 30.4 M Bracewell to Saud Shakeel, no run, slower and well outside off, Shakeel leans across and defends it to the off-side
