(TEA DAY THREE)
Bond ripped out 3 quick wickets after lunch with pace and skill before the debutant Umar Akmal counter attacked with some thrilling strokes
Score is 160-5
OBSERVATIONS
- Bond's c&b to remove Yousuf was the equal of one he took in an ODI against AUS in 2007
- PAK scored over a 100 runs in the session but NZ will feel they bowled very well
- Vettori's captaincy got a little defensive part way through as the Akmal brothers attacked, PAK were still way behind and the fielders did not need to be pushed back so quickly
- Umar Akmal's innings was not just slogging but filled with some very good strokes, his first ball was a length ball from bond and he cut it for 4!
