That partnership enabled Zimbabwe to claim their first session of the series between tea and stumps and delay the Black Caps push for a 2-0 series clean sweep. Wagner was the pick of the pace attack with 2-61 from 31 overs; Boult finished with 1-45 from 27. Cremer departed for eight, leaving first-time centurion Craig Ervine to bat with the tail and lead the attempt to eclipse the follow-on target of 383.
