Kane Williamson hits double hundred to help New Zealand flatten Pakistan | bbl 2021 cricket score
Skipper Kane Williamson broke his fourth double-hundred test. Simultaneously, Henry Nicholls and Daryl Mitchell scored centuries to feed New Zealand's effort for a 2-0 series sweep in the second and last test against Pakistan on Tuesday.

Williamson scored 238 and participated in a 369-game marathon partnership with Nicholls, who made 157 New Zealand's fourth-game best.

Williamson then allowed Mitchell to complete his first test of the century before the first innings of New Zealand were declared on 659-6.

In the first innings, Pakistan, which managed 297, finished Day 3 on 8-1, already 354 runs behind and staring at an innings loss.

Pakistan could not make the most cloudy weather, and the second new ball and Azhar Ali spilt a gully catch to allow Nicholls to complete his seventh test century.

Battled by a calf strain, Nicholls attempted to counter-attack, pull and cut before his dismissal after trying to pull Mohammad Abbas off.

Williamson was very reliable at the other end and became the third New Zealand batsman to score 7,000 test runs after Stephen Fleming and Ross Taylor.

Currently the top-ranked test batsman, Williamson took a single out of Shaheen Afridi to tie Brendon McCullum's record of four double-hundred test bats from New Zealand.

Williamson shook hands with batting partner Kyle Jamieson and lifted his bat at a muted celebration.

After beating for more than nine-and-a-half hours and touching 28 borders, Williamson took a tired shot and left with scores of 251, 129, 21 and 238 in his last four test innings.

Pakistan lost multiple catches in the match and was similarly careless with a ball conceding 64 extra runs.
