The Kiwi speedster was not included in the early part of Pakistan innings due to injury by the delivery bowled by Shaheen Afridi on the second day of the first Test match.

But the moment Wagner came on to bowl on the third day he Kept the same intent and stick to his bowling strength where he delivered short balls and dominated Pakistani Batsman. The X-Ray reports which were conducted on the second day revealed that his right toe was fractured but he was advised by New Zealand medical staff that if he can bear the pain then he can step on to the field on Day 3.
