Shoaib rocks Kiwis after Inzamam's 329
Inzamam-ul-Haq hammered a career-best 329 out of a Pakistan total of 643 before pace bowler Shoaib Akhtar scythed through the New Zealand top-order to leave them reeling on 58 for six after the second day of the first Test on Thursday.
Inzamam's innings was the 10th highest in Test history and the second best by a Pakistan player. It spanned almost 10 hours, including 206 -- nine sixes and 38 fours -- in boundaries.
Shoaib then produced a withering spell of four wickets for four runs to leave New Zealand, needing 444 to avoid the follow-on, in desperate trouble.
He clean bowled Matthew Horne, Mark Richardson, Stephen Fleming and Chris Harris with a string of express, almost unplayable yorkers, finishing with figures of four for 11 off seven overs.
Haq, who started the second day on 159 out of Pakistan's 355 for four, battled cramps before being the last man out.
Only Hanif Mohammad, with 337 against West Indies in 1957-8, has ever scored more for Pakistan.
Inzamam faced 436 balls as Pakistan posted their highest team total, beating the 616 for five declared against the same opposition in Auckland in 1988-89.
The dehydrated, exhausted tourists, needing to negotiate the remaining 20 overs, were rocked immediately as Shoaib took his four wickets in 25 balls.
The 'Rawalpindi Express', who last week bowled a delivery recorded unofficially at 161kph (100.04 mph), knocked over Horne's leg stump, sent the middle one cartwheeling for Richardson and Fleming before opting for Harris's off peg.
Craig McMillan tried to fight back with 15 off 16 balls, including a six off spinner Danish Kaneria, before being given out, caught bat-and-pad off Saqlain Mushtaq, by South African umpire Rudi Koertzen, who appeared at first to indicate that the batsman had not got an edge.
Television replays suggested that initial reaction was correct.
