Black Caps v Pakistan

He's bowling unplayable deliveries on a pretty regular basis at the moment.

Fuck I wish I could be watching (I'm at a chess tournament so can only follow livescoring).

I'm sure Kane would happily trade MOTM for the series sweep

I don’t think the series sweep was ever in doubt really.

MOTM is gonna be tough. Poor old Nicholls won’t even get a look in despite his fine innings.

Assuming we wrap this up, you can't ask much more from this team.
Target was four test wins to have a chance to get to Lords and they look to have done it.
What a special special team.

I'm explaining to my lad that this isn't normal for NZ cricket and to revel in it while we can. Best test team I can remember

I actually get a bit angry when I hear people saying they are waiting for the Black Craps to turn up.
We haven't been rubbish since McCullum and Hesson took over the team. There have been blips but it has been an upwards trajectory the whole way. This helps for the future of NZ cricket too as kids watch their idols at the top of the world!

NZ cricket highlights. Been marvelling out how poorly put together these videos have been.
Nothing of our Kane reaching 200. Got Mitchell's 50 though, but not his hundred
Yeah, I just watched that. WTF was the complier thinking?? Williamson double ton and Mitchell ton / declaration are obvious highlights!
Not heard Sumo in a while, and honestly, it wasn't long enough. He's not the voice of cricket. On Kane's wicket ...
"Daryl Mitchell! .... looks on as Kane ....."
I've only seen little of this and the last test but have had to switch it on mute each time he steps into the comms box. Cricket is one of those sports where you just can't have "generalist" commentators. It's too long and there's too much speaking time for them to demonstrate just how little they know about the game.

Perfect example of why I’m not a fan of Sumo just seconds ago. Fleming makes a funny dry humour comment and there is laughing, but then Sumo has to pipe in. Just let the joke alone, no need to add to it.

Kyle MOTM for sure. It's tough taking 20 wickets in a match, without his efforts the game would be meandering to a draw.

@No-Quarter I actually misinterpreted your post! You mean for a team to take 20, didn't you.

Haha yeah, and one player nabbing half of the wickets on his own makes it a damn sight easier!

@Godder You're in Palmy? People have voluntarily gone there? It's not the chess that is a problem.
Missing the cricket too, things go from bad to worse.

Not sure if it's voluntary exactly, if someone wants to be national champion, it's Hobson's Choice. I'm one of the arbiters (chess term for umpire), which is how I have computer access during the games, but I didn't really have a choice either as I have to attend at least one major tournament every two years to maintain my arbiter status, which the national championship counts as, and Covid has put the dampener on events... It's in Palmy because there is a good organiser willing to host it, a good venue, and sponsorship is available.
