Would it kill us to have an extra test against both our foes so far this year ?
Don't think your World Ranking could handle getting done at home TBH. Losing at home to 5th and 9th isn't healthy.
Just you wait until trans Ta$man rugby gets going again!

Thanks to Boucher and Graeme Smith the Proteas develope the old habit of fighting back after a loss. We saw this against India and now again. England don't had this in the Ashes. But both (Smith and Boucher) have to explain this to CSA.
Hope they survive this.
South African cricket is healthy with lots of Youngs like Baby AB Tristan Stubbs and Ethan Bosch coming through our cricket dyructures.
Sadly there isn't a 3rd test so we'll have to wait another 4 years against our rugby rival.

Crazy to only play 2 matches

jesus the series averages are a bit sick aye?
Park Cricket Colin gets an A for 183 runs at 92
Bs for Nicholls, Blundell and ConwayMitchell gets a D
Jamieson, Latham and Young get fucking Fs. Great big fucking Fs. Barely a run between them. rubbish
With the ball Henry , Wags and Southee get As
C for Jameison and park cricket colinWe took 39 wickets at good averages. This one is on the top 5 in the 2nd test.

@kiwi_expat Stead is not a Boomer. He is one year younger than me I definitely ain't a Boomer!

While we've been giving Timmy grief in the lower order, also noting...
I think they confused his height in feet with his position.

Yeah we'll get pooched, but let's stay on topic eh? @MN5 hates it when rugby treads on the glorious World Champion team that is the BCs.
Especially when they can't win a series at home
@Machpants has taken up the mantle in @Virgils absence by the looks of things.
But yeah, staying on topic the ride was fun while it lasted. Christ on a bike KW can’t comeback fast enough can he ? The most important Black Cap since Paddles, easily.

This two tests show you can't play test cricket without a spinner.
I think the first test proved you can, ooms. Emphatically
The bowlers didn't lose the game for us. The batters did

Yeah weird post. We still dished out one of the biggest hidings I can remember without a spinner in sight ( which makes today’s result all the more annoying )

Stead is a pretty uninspiring coach but this is Kane's team so when he's not playing we lose our way a bit, especially when the going gets tough.
-
This is the first time since 2012/13 that NZ had not been able to win even one test series in their home season.
I'm not at all confident that we're going to progress any further under Stead, he's too conservative to rock the boat and make any courageous choices, it's been far too much of the same 'old school' approach under him and we're clearly stagnating now and are in need of a different approach.
