Ish Sodhi (56*) and Neil Wagner (7) were hailed as heroes yesterday after their gritty 188-ball stand secured a second Test draw and a series win for New Zealand against England.
Battered and bruised after a torrid time from a desperate England attack, the pair hung on until bad light stopped play with Wagner's dismissal in the penultimate over. The second Test draw gave NZ the series 1-0 after they won the first Test. Wagner and Sodhi added 37 runs in 31.2 overs. "If it wasn't for them putting their hand up, weathering the storm bumps and bruises and all, this series result could have been so different," NZ captain Kane Williamson said.
