    To think there's another humiliation to come. From a three-nil whitewash in India to a three-nil whitewash at home.

      Carse comes on and takes a terrific caught and bowled.

      Latham gone, 33/3.

      Provided Ravindra and Mitchell each get a double ton we should do this pretty comfortably

      Doesn't have to be Ravindra and Mitchell to get the double tons you mention.

      Phillips and Blundell, with some chip-ins from the lower order will be fine also.

          Blundell saving us from an absolute humiliation.

          Mitch Hay can unpack his suitcase and if Phillips hoped to bat at 6 anytime soon he can put those thoughts from his mind.

          The way he got out he's more likely to move down in the order!

            Sounds like a general failure from all concerned

                That’s enough from you.

                Your team lost the first test to a team that lost 3-0 at home to a team that is about to get hammered 2-0 at home.

                So basically your team sux way more than ours.

                  Blundell playing a career saving knock in a batting effort where there is absolutely no pressure. Great. Another 10 tests for him.

                    These guys are inconsistent flakes. Ravindra will be the next to lose an IPL contract at this rate of up and down performance. And Conway will be a walking wicket in Plunket Shield by the end of the season. Dire.

                      Was gonna say - is Blundell the anti-Watling - I.e. scores runs when it doesn't matter

                        Tough gig replacing a bunch of all-time NZ greats. We had the same 'joy' in the 1990s as well, particularly after the world cup.

                          Well done Blundell.

                          Massive pressure on his place in the side and this won’t mean much in terms of the result but this has been a bloody nice innings.

                          May as well go on for 200 now.

                            Blundell should need a hundred here to save himself

                            Well done, Blundell.

                            Some shades of his early series vs Australia when pretty much everyone else was falling apart. (not Wags).

                              He’s done enough to play next week.

                                    I think Nathan Astle gave Tom Blundell a call during the drinks break for some advice

                                    EDIT : Oh……this comment aged rather poorly

                                      They’re leaving the run a bit late but a double hundred from Southee and a dogged 50 from O’Rourke should see us home

                                        How's the conservative selections going for you Gary? Can't expect to win test matches if you're top order is failing. Surely there must be some changes ahead of the next test. With the series lost they have nothing to lose by giving other guys a crack.

                                          Heaviest home defeat by runs - but, clearly not as bad as when Courtney Walsh dynamited us.
