Cricinfo says Taylor now has the third highest non-WK catches in all international formats.
Behind who? Steve Waugh and Ali Cook?

Jawardene and Ponting. The list doesn't include the current test but will be updated after it finishes. Fleming also very high.

MOTM is gonna be tough. Poor old Nicholls won’t even get a look in despite his fine innings.
Kyle MOTM for sure. It's tough taking 20 wickets in a match, without his efforts the game would be meandering to a draw.

Not much doubt about MOTM now for mine. 6-38 in this innings.
The pitch has done a bit but we had effectively 4 centuries in our one innings over two days. So it was manageable.
Jamieson has completely taken that away from the Pakistan batsmen. Highest score of 93 over two innings (strangely Henry got Ali) but they just couldn't escape Jamieson. He just continued to take out batsmen that were set in both innings without even conceding runs.

Jamieson man of the match, Kane player of the series?
Surely.
And now Kane picks up a wicket.
One wicket to go, Southee will be licking his lips as he takes the new ball next over.

What a hiding, what a statement, what a team we have right now. World number ONE in tests, absolutely incredible all things considered.
As I said earlier in the season I expected us to account for WI and Pakistan at home, but we've just been completely dominant from start to finish.
We've got the talent and it's clear we have a great culture with Kane at the helm commanding the respect of his team and setting the standard. When players come into the side and immediately thrive it's a testament to the environment they have created.
Kane and KJ were amazing all season. Kane has well and truly cemented his spot as the premier test batsmen in the world right now, and the sky is the limit for KJ.
Exciting times as a cricket fan in NZ and these guys will be inspiring kids for generations to come. Loving it.

It's still difficult to get used to two sides turning up to our shores and we absolutely flogged them both in every test with consumate ease.
Coming to NZ to play test cricket is a very tough assignment for anyone these days.
