Black Caps v Pakistan

Psh, unbeaten hundreds to both of them coming right up...

@Chris-B I never said anything about Raval in particular, you were the one going on about his average, so I think between us we managed to get rid of him.
No doubt Latham will follow shortly...

The ultimate humiliator
Mohammad Amir to Latham, 2 runs, midwicket drops a tough catch diving to his left. Aslam drops the third catch of Amir in this Test. Shortish and outside off, Latham skips back and pulls in the air. Aslam throws himself to his left, the ball hits his left hand and bobbles out. Poor Amir, **and Aslam has been banished to the deep**@No-Quarter you were lucky!!

@No-Quarter only another 51 overs to negotiate. You are jinxing well today!

Well thanks for your contribution to the fern!
KS Williamson c †Sarfraz Ahmed b Imran Khan 42 (88b 7x4 0x6) SR: 47.72We will see you tomorrow

Awesome morning session in the end, lead of 152 with 9 wickets remaining. Plenty of work still to do, but advantage Black Caps.

To be fair, when Williamson went out it was probably due to the TV commentators talking about what score we should declare at.
At effectively 230/3 with 44 overs left in the day it's reaching the point where you might start to think about setting up a declaration. I'd be starting to think about a batting order of CDG, Southee, Henry, Wagner, BJ, Santner.

Latham goes for a well made 80. Got the time in the middle that I requested...
What's the plan from here. A lead of 350ish and 40 minutes at them tonight would be ideal.

Sort of depends on how many overs they're going to play tomorrow. Presumably 100? The over rate today has been appalling and seems like we won't get the planned 100 overs in today.
But, if 100 overs tomorrow is the case you might want to be a bit more conservative. Lead of 370 and 30 minutes at them? Would be a shame to draw the series with a get-able declaration.

Since tea it looks like we are trying to bore them into submission, but not allow their bowlers any maidens.
7 runs off last 6 overs, with pretty much so nothing threatening from what I'm following on cricinfo

9 runs off next 5 balls. Cracking.

And the rest ... Everybody is writing that this is a great pitch for batting now. We need at least another 100 runs from here.
And as I type ... CDG is out.

Sounds right on the pitch - the guy who needs eye surgery is on 89*
Reckon this is one declaration to err on the safe side for.
