Latham looking good, Conway scratchy.
Good to get a 50 partnership up
59/0
This is all your fault.
Well I did say he was scratchy. I’ve done nothing wrong

Apparently his average at this ground is 3.5, lets hope he can increase that by a large amount.
Strange, but true!
Obvoiusly rising as he scores runs

The bar is so low with Conway right now, any mention of him being not out is criminal

Was the third umpire seriously going to give that out LBW off the arm if it was hitting the stumps???
Yep, thankfully well outside the line.
36.1.3 the ball not having previously touched his/her bat, the striker intercepts the ball, either full-pitch or after pitching, with any part of his/her person
-
probably a fair comment for once from a fan on cricinfo
Rajiv: "The Rangana Herath element could be in full effect here. Despite being the spin bowling coach I'm sure he has imparted plenty on to the NZ batters on how to tackle spin"
-
Watched a fair bit of it today - good watching.
Of course, as soon as I start typing up a bit of commentary, Kane gets out.
Each time NZ is on a brink of a game changing partnership, they lose a wicket.
EDIT. And Ravindran too. Best I log off.
-
@MN5 you've already been warned once. STFU with your positivity and optimism.
This is the fucking Black Caps we're talking about.
Amateur.
A more appropriate post at the end of play when NZ are involved is. "We are fucking doomed. We are only 570 in front with nine wickets in hand and we will be batting last against Kenya. We have no fucking chance".

So, overs unders for getting bowled out in teh 4th innings is about 160. I dno't think we want to chase more than 200.
I'd have agreed before the test match, but honestly their spin attack was rubbish yesterday. Yes we batted well, but that would be the worst test bowling from Asian spinners at home v NZ I could remember for a long time.

4th innings though ... you just throw it up and see what happens. It's really really hard to bat.
