That's a pretty incredible win given we're missing all of our best players. We're a seriously good ODI side and deserve to be world champs right now.
Also, Ross is absolutely phenomenal in the longer formats. What a player.
Apart from Ross obviously. Solid argument for best ODI #4 ever - Batting stats for all #4s
That's pretty impressive by Rossco! The only person you'd probably slide ahead of him based on those stats is ABdV - with a slightly higher average and a better strike rate.
Taking other things into account, Sir Viv still takes precedence because:

Just watched highlights. Seriously great batting from Taylor and Latham. That Nicholls LBW though...WTF. Missing the stumps by miles. How the umpire gave that out is a complete mystery. Also CdG will be on dishes after making a mess of that catch and poor running between wickets.
-
You can thank me for that win. Was starting to not, Latham had 2 from 11 and you could tell wickets were about to start falling - better to sleep than to see the inevitable slide towards defeat.
Seriously good chase that one. Never let the rate required get out of hand which isn't easy chasing nearly 7 an over.
Waitangi Day quiz question (easy)
The top 3 ODI scores from 7 in the batting order were all made in New Zealand in the last 5 seasons. Name the batsmen.

@KiwiPie Ronchi, Neesham, CdG?
Edit: I misread it to be the scores were made by NZers, but after reading again I see the scores were scored in NZ.
So I’ll change mine to
Ronchi, Stonis and the Sri Lankan guy who tore us apart a season or two ago... is it Perera??? Think his brother was also in the team?
-
Ronchi was presumably his 170 against Sri Lanka. One of the most insane innings you'll ever see in terms of swinging a match.
I'd guess that the second place is a Sri Lankan, but I can't remember his name. He plundered about 300 runs in a 5 match series, including a fantastic century. Him and Neesham traded high tempo innings that entire series. His name might have been Chandimal or Kamara?

Well, I guess this ones goes into the 'delicate petal' area

Send the whiny do gooder back to England.
That is one hell of a wind up and it goes on and on and on.... I got maybe 1/3 through it before I stormed back here to whine about the whiner!
Did the article mention she was at the game with her mate Golly?

Sadly, these days I cannot tell if this is satire or real.
Is it real? Competing on Wokeness?

This is correct - Ronchi, Stoinis and Perera - the only 3 to get to 140 batting at 7 in an ODI.

I'd forgotten about the Stoinis innings. Interesting, only Ronchi's was pat of a winning effort. Ronchi was also the only one to do it in the first innings too.

@KiwiPie No-one else guessing, so an initial offering of Anderson, Ronchi and Dhoni.
0/3!!
1/3. Ronchi is correct.
Yeah - I was thinking Corey probably batted higher than 7 in his Q'town effort. He batted at 5 and it was 2014 anyway.

I had too and I was at the game - was stressful as fuck. Massive relief when we finally got a run out to end it, felt a bit sorry for him after that as he was going to hit them home in one of the most remarkable ODI innings of all time.

I wasn't at the game but was watching at home. I remember going from relaxed (as we had them on the ropes) and enjoying what seemed like a bit of a cameo in an otherwise easy victory to more and more stressed as he just kept on clearing the rope. I went nuts when we finally got the last wicket.
