LATHAM SHINES IN NZ GLOOM

A REJUVENATED Tom Latham ensured a positive start to New Zealand’s reply after Quinton de Kock bolstered South Africa with a defiant 90 on another wet day in the third Test in Hamilton. When bad light ended play four overs early yesterday, New Zealand were 67 without loss in reply to South Africa’s 314. Latham, who managed 24 in total in three previous innings in the series, was unbeaten on 42 after coming out on the right side of two reviews, with Jeet Raval on 25.
