Black Caps v England Test series
-
Fresh bowlers a ball that should still have a decent amount of shine on it. I'm okay with Watling and Nicholls taking a bit of time to get established. Hopefully after the first drinks break or so we start to play with a bit more intent. Our lead is good, but I'd prefer to take an extra session now and look to bat once only rather than be trying to chase 50 in a final session under lights with Anderson getting the ball to zip.

Ooh don't you just hate it when you are outta reviews

Would it have been out? At the ground and we didn’t get a replay

Looked like it missed on normal replay down the wicket. Slight hot spot though

@duluth slight inside edge
Paying the price for the ridiculous LBW review against KW on day 1.

Do you think all of these guys had a mutual laugh about the Oz situation?

So when do we declare? Bat until dusk then make them try to survive the evening?
There's always a chance of a collapse but in the absence of that, I'd declare with around 130 overs left in the test. Should be enough runs not to have to bat again but a decent spell with a 2nd new ball if required.

Hundy!! Good man!

Brilliant hundred. His first was against SA too, so he can score against the best. Well played son.
-
Mediocre in the shorter forms of the game but seems very comfortable in the test format. Well done.
-
@sneakdefreak the anti-guptill!!
-
300 lead. Realistically they won't have time to set us a target now, so would like to see us kick on or declare in the near future.

Both Smith and rigor were adamant we need to be bowling this session. But not so early we lose the shine for the evening session.
