Smith devastates Ireland with five wickets in 29 balls

Fast bowler Nathan Smith has taken five wickets in 29 deliveries as New Zealand continue to stifle Ireland in their one-off Test at Stormont.

Thanks to Smith, Ireland were all out for 179 and made to follow on. At stumps on the second day, Ireland were 2-65 in pursuit of a 312 target to make New Zealand bat again in the first-ever Test between the two countries.

New Zealand declared at 8-490 before lunch on Thursday when debutant Dean Foxcroft was out for 98, missing out on the third century in the innings.
