BULAWAYO, Zimbabwe (AP) New Zealand reduced Zimbabwe to 107-3 at lunch on the third day of the second test on Monday, having declared at 582-4 in its first innings the previous day.

Zimbabwe, resuming on 55-0 at the Queens Sports Club, lost opener Tino Mawoyo for a very patient 26 when he inside-edged a Tim Southee delivery onto his stumps.

Sikandar Raza Butt soon followed for 3, caught at gully by New Zealand captain Kane Williamson from Neil Wagner's bowling.

Zimbabwe opener Chamu Chibhabha defied the New Zealand attack before he fell for 60 just before lunch, caught at cover by Williamson from the bowling of Mitchell Satner. Chibhabha hit nine boundaries off 170 balls.
