Government bond yields edged higher on Wednesday, though this might have been more a reflection of investors allocating money to stocks rather than a judgment about the U.S. economy.
Mills atoned with a well-pitched up delivery which Kamran Akmal edged into his stumps and New Zealand added a second wicket when Shane Bond, having conceded successive boundaries to Mohammad Hafeez, tempted him into fishing at a leg-cutter outside off stump and keeper Hopkins accepted an easy chance.
