    Fuck I wish I could be watching (I'm at a chess tournament so can only follow livescoring).

    Big late inswinger between bat and pad smashing into the top of leg stump.

    That’s his 10 for.

    He's bowling unplayable deliveries on a pretty regular basis at the moment.

    A comment I read on FB was that it appears the Pakistanis prepared well for Southee, Boult and Wagner, but have been caught unawares by Jamieson.

    I'm sure Kane would happily trade MOTM for the series sweep

    I don’t think the series sweep was ever in doubt really.

    MOTM is gonna be tough. Poor old Nicholls won’t even get a look in despite his fine innings.

    Assuming we wrap this up, you can't ask much more from this team.

    Target was four test wins to have a chance to get to Lords and they look to have done it.

    What a special special team.

    I'm explaining to my lad that this isn't normal for NZ cricket and to revel in it while we can. Best test team I can remember

    I actually get a bit angry when I hear people saying they are waiting for the Black Craps to turn up.

    We haven't been rubbish since McCullum and Hesson took over the team. There have been blips but it has been an upwards trajectory the whole way. This helps for the future of NZ cricket too as kids watch their idols at the top of the world!

    Boult channeling his inner Wagner, bowling short stuff from around the wicket to a left handed. Love it.

    NZ cricket highlights. Been marvelling out how poorly put together these videos have been.

    Nothing of our Kane reaching 200. Got Mitchell's 50 though, but not his hundred 🙄

    Yeah, I just watched that. WTF was the complier thinking?? Williamson double ton and Mitchell ton / declaration are obvious highlights!

    Not heard Sumo in a while, and honestly, it wasn't long enough. He's not the voice of cricket. On Kane's wicket ...

    "Daryl Mitchell! .... looks on as Kane ....."

    I've only seen little of this and the last test but have had to switch it on mute each time he steps into the comms box. Cricket is one of those sports where you just can't have "generalist" commentators. It's too long and there's too much speaking time for them to demonstrate just how little they know about the game.

    Perfect example of why I’m not a fan of Sumo just seconds ago. Fleming makes a funny dry humour comment and there is laughing, but then Sumo has to pipe in. Just let the joke alone, no need to add to it.

    @Godder You're in Palmy? People have voluntarily gone there? It's not the chess that is a problem.

    Missing the cricket too, things go from bad to worse.

    Kyle MOTM for sure. It's tough taking 20 wickets in a match, without his efforts the game would be meandering to a draw.

    @No-Quarter I actually misinterpreted your post! You mean for a team to take 20, didn't you.

    Haha yeah, and one player nabbing half of the wickets on his own makes it a damn sight easier!
