Australia’s Cameron Green and Josh Hazlewood create history with record 10th wicket partnership against New Zealand

NEW DELHI: Australia’s Cameron Green and Josh Hazlewood etched their names in the annals of cricket history by forming the highest 10th wicket partnership against New Zealand in Test cricket. The remarkable feat unfolded on Friday at the Basin Reserve in Wellington, marking a significant moment in the ongoing Test match between the two cricketing powerhouses.

The duo’s partnership of 116 runs not only shattered the previous record of 114 runs set by Jason Gillespie and Glenn McGrath in Brisbane back in 2004 but also propelled Australia to a commanding position in the match.

Scorecard: NZ vs AUS, 1st Test

Their stellar performance came as a welcome relief for the reigning ICC World Test Championship winners after a challenging opening day on the field.

Displaying a blend of patience and attacking prowess, Green, in particular, showcased his mettle with an unbeaten knock of 174. This innings marked only the second time Green had reached triple figures for Australia in Test cricket, surpassing his previous best of 114 against India in Ahmedabad the previous year.

Throughout their partnership, Green and Hazlewood demonstrated astute batting acumen, frustrating the New Zealand bowlers and capitalizing on any loose deliveries. Their partnership not only bolstered Australia’s first innings total to an imposing 383 but also underscored the depth and resilience of the Australian batting lineup.

The significance of their achievement was further highlighted by the fact that it was only the sixth time Australia had witnessed a 100-run partnership or more for the 10th wicket in Test cricket.

Green and Hazlewood’s remarkable display of skill and determination not only set a new benchmark for Australian cricket but also left an indelible mark on the ongoing Test match against New Zealand.
