    So @Booboo has been sent to bed. Now time for some desperate attempts at reverse jinxes?

    We are done for. Even if we get Stokes and Root out the guys to come can easily smash the winning runs

    I suppose it's a big ask to win a test match when your top four perform woefully with the bat.

    On the plus side, Kane is definitely due in the next Test:

    No point in playing a spinner if he's only going to get two overs in the whole test. (One last desperate reverse jinx to get Ajaz a five-for)

    Well done Root. 10,000 test runs and 25 tons is awesome.

    Timmy getting hammered in this spell.

    Southee 0/83 and Boult 1/73 at this stage.

    Two runs to get.

    Christ they couldn’t have done it easier.

    My two cents assuming we don’t get five quick wickets…….

    After amazing starts KJ and Conway are coming down to earth a bit at this level.

    We miss Rossco and BJ.

    We badly need KW to find form. Fast.

    Timmy and Trent might be heading the way of Jimmy and Stuart.

    CDGH summed up his whole career in one match.

    Why the hell was Wags not playing ahead of Patel ?

    …….but despite all this it sux losing to a team as average as this one. Man for man we’re still considerably better.

    Fuck.

    Bloodless losses to the Bangles, saffas and now the Poms in the last 3 series

    Yeah the glory days are over and let’s be honest they weren’t going to last with our depth.

    Day six at Southampton was even more important in hindsight. Looks like our next realistic chance will be at least a couple of WTC cycles away...

    Is there any sentence which sums up the Black Caps better?

    Bloody annoying that we're performing so poorly this year... we clearly have a very good test team, but the focus/concentration this year has been pathetic, need to bloody wake up & refocus big time going into the next test.

    I’m still pinching myself a bit that we’re test champions.

    But lets be honest, we’re no chance this time round. Without a couple of extreme lesser lights in Mitchell and Blundell we would have been even more fucked.

    There was some very nice bowling too, top order need a long hard look at themselves after that effort though.

    We rode the Wave when we needed to. Take it and run.

    This one was super frustrating. Should have hammered home the advantage batting on day 3, but folded. Capitulating like that is just so annoying
