Interestingly, Joe Root turned to Jacob Bethell with a new ball more than five years old and the trick worked as he bowled Jamieson, ending an 86-run partnership after the drinks period. But Phillips continued to sweetly time the ball as he achieved his highest Test score, slowly inching closer to his maiden Test ton. He reached the landmark with one archer, who first came on the 19th of the day. The final two wickets fell soon after, with Matt Henry cracking one violently to give Archer a wicket before Phillips pulled Matthew Fisher to deep mid-wicket as New Zealand’s innings ended on 391.
