    Loved that Kane stacked the field around the bat, and then it was a C&B!

    Only one place left to hit was straight back down the pitch.. was pretty good catch too.

    Don't get replays but I swear Jamieson bowls back foot no balls when wide.

    And as I type, Baz explains a rule change...

    Sorry dude, missed that. Can you please elaborate?

    Mitch takes the final two scalps to win the test. Not a bad game for a food bill. Shows how much we know

    And the six year old got Wagner's autograph, so all is well with the world.

    No selfie?!

    All the autographs he got were from boundary stalking the fine leg/third man fieldsmen to get his bat signed. 🙂

    I hope he told him "all dad's virtual polish chick mates love you"

    The LBW not-out a couple of deliveries before the end. It was referred to the DRS, but it stayed not out based on umpire's call - hitting the edge of the wickets. 🙂

    Terrific win by the Black Caps.

    Never thought i'd see them become the number 1 test side in the world.

    Santner the unlikely hero for the unlikely world's best ranked team.

    Brilliant.

    @Donsteppa been travelling and only worked out how to get radio commentary last half hour or so (so heard that incident). (Only got to hotel to see last wicket on Foxtel Go just after it happened.)

    Loves your comment about home town umpires.

    You know it used to be that if you touch the return crease (the one parallel to the pitch length) with your back foot it was a noey? Stopped you bowling from too wide.
    Apparently that's no longer. Baz said something about your first point of contact or some such.
    Suffice to say that I don't know the details but do know not to bother looking anymore because I imagine they've made it nigh on impossible to bowl a back foot no ball from here on. And the tv umpire no ball nazi probably doesn't have time to check both feet

    @Siam First point on contact when you land your foot has to be inside the line. So if you are angling in and your toes land first inside the line your heel can plant outside. Effectively made the return crease a foot 😉 wider.

    As @siam says first point of contact.

    I like Baz as commentator. Anyway the law (no idea when they changed it, but it had me puzzled when it happened as it looked wrong under the old law):

    21.5.1 the bowler’s back foot must land within and not touching the return crease appertaining to his/her stated mode of delivery.

    Edit: What @dogmeat said.

    Told us what?

    Santner could get 2 (very much) tail enders out in the the last session of play on a turning wicket?

    2 for 59. Game would probably have been over a lot earlier if he hadn't bowled 19.3 overs.

    One of the first guys picked for white ball cricket, not an option for red ball. Don't think his 19 as an "allrounder" really helped either.

    So who comes in? Henry? That should give us somebody else to moan about besides Satnav.

    CDG was in the nets at the Mount wasn't he? His record in Chch is quite good I think and it isn't generally a turner. If they insist on an "all rounder"...

    Is Ferg still broken as well?
