Nicholls scoring a double ton is downright hilarious

Does Nicholls get another shot ?
Unfortunately he probably will, and he’ll probably get a hundy which means we’ll be stuck with him for at least another 12 months.

Partnership now top 30 all time all wickets.
interesting read:
Kane 3 out of top 5, 4 out of top 10
McCullum 3 out of top 10
Watling 2 out of top 10
Nicholls 2 out of top 5 both with Kane ...lol -
Michael Bracewell out of the ODI series, replaced by Rachin Ravindra.
TSF's favourite Bracewell has been picked up by RCB in the IPL, replacing Will Jacks: https://www.hindustantimes.com/cricket/michael-bracewell-replaces-injured-will-jacks-in-rcb-squad-for-ipl-2023-101679121180041.html
His ODI 140 (78) in India in January probably helped...!

David Warner and henry Nichols
Guys scoring double hundreds this summer who should still get rissoled

Nicholls dropped by keeper. I'm shocked.
Career prolonging double hundy coming up

KW, sensational. He could genuinely stand alone as our best ever player by his careers end.
Just went past M Waugh, Sobers and Boycott in terms of runs scored in his career. Three pretty handy names.
Then again, Paddles was the highest wicket taker in test cricket and was a better batsman than KW is a bowler…….is that enough to keep him at number one ?
In any case it’s a long way down to M Crowe for third.

You know, that comment reminds me of people wondering what would happen if Foster wins the World Cup (any subsequent Foster comments in this thread will be deleted).
God save us if Nicholls makes some runs ...

All of Kane's 200s scored in NZ
The fuck you bloody crowd will point this out when talking up Virat Kohli
He actually has one outside of NZ, very recently:

He scores so many it’s impossible to keep track

Mathews gone for a single run, 34/4. Things looking FUCKEN ugly for these guys now.
Henry with two classic fast bowler dismissals, caught by the keeper. Top stuff.
I’m very pleased to see him step up and prove his worth as an international test player after a pretty awful period there ( he took four wickets on debut vs England but hit a bad patch soon after )
Nicholls got his double off 240 balls, that’s a bloody nice strike rate after all the play that was lost on Friday.

Chandimal edges through the vacant 3rd slip. With the juice in the pitch and the huge lead, maybe we should have the extra slip?
Still over 500 to get.
I think you make a fair point.
They did have a night watchman so not quite close to the bunnies coming in but a couple of strikes before lunch would be magnificent.

It's still 474 and they are settling in. Put guys all around the bat in an attempt to pressure them into a mistake
