Jamieson takes five to blunt Azhar's battling 93Azhar Ali was holding the Pakistan innings together as he edged towards a century in the second Test against New ZealandCHRISTCHURCH (NEW ZEALAND) - Kyle Jamieson took a five wicket haul as New Zealand bowled out Pakistan for 297, anchored by a sterling 93 from Azhar Ali on day one of the second Test between the two countries in Christchurch Sunday. Jamieson, in only his sixth Test, had the figures of five for 69, the third five-wicket haul of his fledgling career. While the pitch favoured the bowlers, Jamieson said the overall conditions meant there was no room for error. After the early loss of Shan Masood, Azhar added 62 with Abid Ali, 88 with Mohammad Rizwan and 56 with Faheem Ashraf. After the tea adjournment, and once Henry had removed Azhar, Jamieson returned to see off Ashraf who was out for 48 when he edged a ball outside off stump to Ross Taylor at first slip.
