ENG vs NZ 3rd Test 2022: Centurion Jonny Bairstow, Jamie Overton Lead England’s Fightback on Day 2 After Kiwi Pacers Wreck Hosts’ Batting Line-Up
The duo started England's rebuild work when the scorecard read 55/6 and helped the hosts get closer to the Kiwi total. They now trail New Zealand by just 65 runs. Earlier, New Zealand were dismissed for 320 in their first innings.
Jonny Bairstow continued his fine form with an exceptional hundred as his and Jamie Overton's 209-run stand helped England out of trouble after New Zealand's pacers had them reeling at 55/6 on Day 2 of the third Test. Trent Boult (3/73) was the wrecker-in-chief as he along with Neil Wagner (2/53) and Tim Southee (1/78) had England in deep trouble before Bairstow and Overton played the rescue act with a sensational partnership.
A partnership worth 209 runs so far has dug England out of a huge hole.
