New Zealand vs South Africa, 2nd Test, Day 3, Highlights:South Africa were 140 for five at stumps on Day 3, leading New Zealand by 211 runs in the ongoing second Test at the Hagley Oval in Christchurch. Earlier, New Zealand were bowled out for 293 despite Colin de Grandhomme’s 120-run marathon knock. Earlier, De Grandhomme and Daryl Mitchell mounted a crucial rescue mission for New Zealand as South Africa continued to dominate the second Test on day two on Saturday. Their 66-run, sixth wicket partnership, dominated by a half-century to de Grandhomme, lifted New Zealand to 157 for five at stumps in reply to South Africa’s 364. Playing with the lights on during a gloomy afternoon at Hagley Oval, South Africa had New Zealand at five for 91 before de Grandhomme joined Mitchell in the middle. The burly all-rounder favoured attack as the best defence and was not out at 54 off 61 deliveries at stumps, with the more circumspect Mitchell on 29.
