Chasing 140, the home side suffered some early jitters before the middle order steadied the ship, cruising to 143-4 with 11 balls to spare courtesy of a 20-ball 40 by Josh Inglis. Bowling with clever variations of pace, Lahiru Kumara (2-22) took the wickets of unconvincing opener Ashton Agar (26 off 31 balls) and captain Aaron Finch (two), who increased his run of scores without a half-century to 12.

Henry Nicholls and Matt Henry spearheaded a commanding display as New Zealand built a 387-run first-innings lead that left South Africa in deep strife on day two of the first Test on Friday. At stumps in Christchurch, South Africa were three for 34, with Temba Bavuma on 22 and Rassie van der Dussen on nine, and needing another 353 to make New Zealand bat again. The record first-innings deficit overhauled for victory is 291 by Australia against Sri Lanka in 1992. New Zealand were all out in their first innings late on day two for 482 in reply to South Africa's 95.
Saurashtra on day one of their Ranji Trophy match at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Rescuing Mumbai from a point where Saurashtra looked to be all over them after reducing them to 44 for three, Ajinkya Rahane (108 not out, 250b, 14x4, 2x6) and Sarfaraz Khan slammed superb centuries (121 not out, 219b, 15x4, 2x6), adding 219 for their fourth wicket alliance in 448 balls to take the 41-time champs to 263 for three by stumps. If the first hour was won by Saurashtra, in which their captain Jaydev Unadkat took Mumbai skipper Prithvi Shaw’s scalp, Rahane and Sarfaraz’s magnificent knocks ensured that the day belonged to Mumbai. Giving his best shot to ensure that he gets one more lifeline by the selectors for the two-Test series against Sri Lanka at home, Rahane — under tremendous pressure to retain his place in the side — did well to shrug off his prolonged poor form by stroking his 36th first-class century- perhaps a career-saving knock. It was his first hundred in any format since his match-winning 112 against Australia at Melbourne in the Boxing Day Test in December 2020.
