Henry will be looking forward to that seam movement as well

So Kane gets less chances to score against this better teams, but you would find it hard to make an argument he's seized the chances he has been given. Playing away so much doesn't help, but it's not like he's cashing in at home either.
It's relatively easy to see why fans from the bigger nations don't hold Kane in the same esteem as us.
But they miss the point that relative to everyone else in NZ history, he stands out like dogs balls.Always feels like the Oz pundits and players only rate someone if they consistently do well in Oz. Understandably I guess, from their point of view.
Will always remember MD Crowe being interviewed in genuine awe on ABC Grandstand during a mid 2000's lunchbreak... while Black Caps batters playing in the Test were spoken about with contempt.

i still, and have always, maintained that Hazlewood is the best test bowler in the world, and has been for some time.
Not as celebrated as the other 3 guys in the lineup, but he's the guy that knocks over the top order. 46% of his wickets are the top 4. Beautiful action through the crease, hits sexy areas, doesn't give up runs. -

I just realised why Super starts so early.
Withdraw and apologise for my earlier comments on rugby...

Gotta give the guys credit, that’s how you collapse. Top notch work
2 Day test anyone -
Kuggeleijn fittingly getting a duck on International Women's Day
Black Caps haven't really been overly impacted by the start of Super Rugby (T20 1 was on a Wednesday night, T20 3 was on a Sunday, Super Round in Melbourne last weekend, Moana vs Rebels in Hamilton of all places tonight) and have completely shat the bed

Ouch, well played !
Given he’s pretty much guaranteed to bowl sometime today he’ll fuck that up too.

The problem with these two going well is it shows the pitch has dried out a bit now. Going to need something special from Henry (with the ball) to stay in this.
