Tea with 2 wickets to get and every run is sacred, 72 runs deficit. New ball 1 over old
Great comeback to only be trailing by 18 runs and one wicket after the first innings debacle - though we could really have done without Tom Latham getting bowled first ball.
Need our batsman all to do a lot better than they did in the first innings.

@chris-b tough marker, fair bit of reverse first ball up. I can't condemn a man on that ball. Then again Ish did what you describe to a similar next ball
I've just found over the years that people like Tendulkar, Lara, Williamson etc tend to receive a lot less unplayable balls than lesser batsmen!
Ross Taylor's turn to be a lesser batsman today 😉

Useful work from BJ and Nicholls - they got us to nearly 150 ahead and four wickets down, but when Henry got out...well, there was another handy 3 from CdG and then the tail didn't wag.
Ha, I thought you meant wickets for a sec

Three quick wickets for the Kiwis, and there's a sniff. 40-0 become 48-3; Ajaz a wicked and Sodhi two.
Tense few overs coming up I hope
... and now 81/3. 95 more to win - possible, but unlikely to roll them. Will take a miracle.

Wagner gets Shafiq just before lunch.
130/4, 46 needed to win.
A couple of quick wickets after the break, we will have the slimmest bit of hope.
it's the heroic optimism of Black Caps fans that keeps us young.

Ok, what the hell is going on??
7 down and could be 8
The fix is in Mr Gupta
Hello John? Yes, it's Hansie here...

Fucking hell tight finish coming up!

Crazy batting from Hasan given he has an established batsmen at the other end. Doesn't back his defense.
