36th over: New Zealand 75-1 (Latham 38, Raval 0) Lyon to Latham, who he has driving early in the over, doing the tidiying up in his follow through. On 381 wickets, he’s now just three away now from overtaking Ian Botham. That’s nearly two with Latham cutting off an outside edge! “That’s too full to be cutting,” says Simon Katich on SEN radio. He gets four for it, just wide of slip. Ooh, and he’s beaten by a big turning off-break to finish. Lyon has quickly found his mojo.
35th over: New Zealand 71-1 (Latham 34, Raval 0) Probing from Starc to begin outside the off stump but well played by Latham through the cordon with soft hands for a couple. There’s a brief delay as the corporate types behind the bowler don’t realise they are in Latham’s eyeline moving around on the second deck of the Trumper Stand. They’ll be popular. Back on it, Starc completes an accurate over with a fuller ball that Latham pushes to extra cover for a single. Good batting.
Lyon is the man! A little lucky, but he strikes regardless! #AUSvNZ | https://t.co/rx14Qs3S0i pic.twitter.com/9Yupeqo05a
