Matt Henry’s incisive seam bowling decimated hosts Zimbabwe on the opening day of their second Test against New Zealand, as the hosts crumbled for 125 all out— their second-lowest total since 2023 -- at the Queens Sports Club here on Thursday.

In reply, New Zealand openers Devon Conway and Will Young compounded Zimbabwe’s woes with a dominant 162-run partnership as the tourists reached 174/1 in 39 overs for a lead of 49 runs. New Zealand had won the first Test by 9 wickets at the same venue in three days, with Matt Henry bagging a match-haul of 9 wickets for 90 runs.
