Sonny Baker’s second day was a lesson that Test cricket can turn on you quick

Debutant Sonny Baker struggled to replicate his impressive first-day performance in England's second Test match against New Zealand, as stand-in captain Joe Root oversaw a sloppy morning session for England as they attempted to bowl New Zealand out quickly. Baker, who had taken wickets on day one, found the conditions or opposition more difficult on day two, illustrating how quickly fortunes can shift in Test cricket. The match represents a significant occasion for Baker, playing his first Test, while Root deputised as captain during the fixture.
