      Williamson seeing it like a beach ball.

      His first one was a thick outside edge along the ground for 4, but the next two balls, wow just spanked with perfect timing through the offside.

      Kane 13 off 4,
      Latham 15 off 74
      Cricket is a funny old game sometimes.

        Love Rigor carefully explaining why a poor conversion rate can't be used to criticise a batsmen. Hmm, wonder what his was like!

            192/1.

            Williamson on 75 and still below his average in the last 5 tests against SL.

                          That was such an incredible innings. The Sri Lankans were unsure about celebrating and the commentators so lost for words when he out. To score so fast, with so much control and without chances is unreal.

                                Taylor continuing where the little master left off and looking good. Latham knuckling down as he has all day.

                                She's a good day to be a Black Caps fan.

                                    Raval and Latham seem to have forgotten they are decent players and reverted to the 'shit opener' Black Cap stereotype. Both owe the team some runs so KW and Rossco can put the feet up for a bit.

                                    Great work Latham and to a lesser extent Raval.

                                      I've got a theory that Tom Latham relaxes a bit when his opening partner gets out before he does - largely based on my own experiences opening the batting.

                                      Hence, I think he possibly quite liked batting with Guppy and batting with someone like Raval, who makes a lot of middling scores might not get the best out of Tom.

                                          She's a good day to be a Black Caps fan.

                                          We seem to have a weird hold on the Lankans, particularly over here. Not sure why, but will take it!

                                          There has never been a better time to support this Test side - ever. These guys are remarkable and winning serious games all over the place

                                          Hardly surprising really.

                                          3 x top 10 ever bowlers and 2 x top 5 ever batsmen in the same team, and possibly our best ever keeper batsman.

                                          It feels awesome to be confident about our ability!
