Hard to see our top order shitting itself so badly two times in a row. I'm extremely confident we can hold on to win the series.
How long have you been following the Black Caps?
This team is far better than the shit one's of yesteryear.

100 too many I'd say, but stranger things have happened. New ball is going to be tough in overcast conditions.

So CDG is averaging about 27.4 with the ball, and 37.8 with the bat.
Not many tests, but if he can keep it up ...
Might keep him on...
If he still has those stats after 100 tests I might be tempted to slot him in my all time test team ahead of Cairnsy.

Jeet Raval must have only the one bat left to see him through to the end of the season. He is certainly taking no chances of damaging this one. Clearly preserving the life of the one he is using with a large number or deliberate playing inside the line of the ball, albeit not by much in most instances. Absolutely beautiful bowling by Broad and Anderson in the opening spell.

Opening partnership in double figures ... crikey
So far so good!
Actually, their figures aren't that bad... Raval is still very new, so who knows how accurate his average etc are, but Latham averages over 37 from 36 tests, so is one of our better test openers - arguably 4th behind Turner, Wright and Richardson (in chronological order).
