    That tail is going to have to wag big time again if they want a chance here. If they can't win this, then just 1 T20 win (their strongest format) would signal a verrrrry long tour for the WI

    Gosh the University Oval is a beautiful Cricket ground, possibly on a par with the Basin. Great spot.

    I've had some splendid days at the Basin, sometimes it didn't even rain.

    Agree on the Basin. I've lived in Dunedin.

    There's a lot to love, but the weather isn't part of that equation 🙂

    Having now called both home. The weather is very comparable. Dunedin colder and sunnier over winter. Wellington a bit more consistent for its good period over summer.

    This game here was the coldest I have ever been at a cricket game. https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/new-zealand-vs-sri-lanka-2024-25-1443537/new-zealand-vs-sri-lanka-1st-odi-1443546/full-scorecard

    @SouthernMann I was at that game too! My God it was freezing. There was a very lonely looking bloke operating the ice cream stand.

    I gave up at the innings break and swapped the Basin for the Cambridge and a Parma.

    Hiding in the end. Nicely anchored by Conway.

    The fern is obviously inconsolable after the Rugby.......

    but for anyone who is interested the BCs are 256/6 in the 48th. Daryl Mitchell being Mr reliable as ever with an excellent hundy.

    Yeah he got out for 119. Windies pegged things back a bit. 269-7.

    49 from Conway. Forgettable innings from Young and Ravindra.

    @MN5 Young was pretty funny. Went through a loooong setup, then walked off basically.
