    ICC did stop Kane. He failed. Officially chucked. He passed the retest after remodeling
    But he has had Injury problems preventing him putting in the overs. He isn't comfortable or have muscle memory .

    He doesnt chuck them like its 2013.

    Yeah, they seemed to conveniently tighten it up after Murali retired.

    Ajmal, Ojha etc pretty much permanently banned. Shillingford.
    Narine had his visits but his career seems to have survived.

    The old definition was 10 degrees, but when ICC checked past footage of fast bowlers while examining Murali's action, most of them threw when they bowled their fastest.

    Wow, just been reading through the comments on cricinfo FB page about our Kane being ranked no.1 in the world.

    Just in case we we didn’t know it already, but jeez the vast majority of Indian fans are ignorant whiny little fuckers!

    ‘But he only performs at home’

    Yea, bullshit.
    And playing at home means green seaming decks motherfuckers. How did Virat go on those pitches last summer?

    Williamson chucks .

    To make sure he doesnt chuck, he needs to put in more time to his bowling practice loads than his body can now handle . His bowling is about as currently good as Baz's keeping. Its history.

    Baz could still keep in a pinch (pretty sure he kept his last T20I), as can Kane when he feels the want to bowl.

    This is a bit of a pull out all the stops situation with the injuries and test championship in play - I don't think anyone wants him to be the frontline spinner going forward.

    With Boult/Southee/Wags/CdG all available in NZ conditions there is no reason why he can't bowl 2-4 overs as needed leading up to the second new ball (as he did this test).

    That point is moot for this test coming up because with CdG and Wagner both out you really need to pick an overeater to keep Southee & Boult fresh. The balance becomes a worry with Henry.

    @NTA loves the Bobs and Vagene crew. There’s few things funnier than semi literate ramblings.

    Obvious choice I suppose but he is a new ball bowler.

    That's why Wags is so special, he just finds ways to get people out no matter when you throw him the ball.

    Woohoo test cricket day ! When is the team named ? Assuming Henry for Wags ( sniff ) will be the only change?

    Santner got those crucial wickets when Pakistan looked a chance of grinding to a draw so I’m happy for him to have another go if there’s a chance he’ll do the same even if he’s still an inadequate test cricketer all things considered.

    After a good few days away in the bay being social and merry it’s high time I self isolate and catch as much of this as possible.

    That's about the worst review I have ever seen.

    Can only guess that he thought maybe he hit it.

    Crashing into middle about a third of the way up.

    That has got to be the worst review I've ever seen.

    Missing off and missing leg. Did he think it was going under?

    Haha yeah. The commentators are too nice, describing it as "questionable".

    Southee with an early wicket.

    Doull on the radio saying Southee should give the short forms away as his test bowling had improved so much lately. 99 wickets in his last 20 tests !!! For point of reference our boy Bond got 87 in 18.
