Shot Black Caps and great work Rossco. Again, what a record for a NZ batsman.
All over tomorrow. Just like their predecessors this Pakistan team can't play too well overseas.
You talking about the number 2 test side in the world who haven't lost a series in their last 12 and drew 2 all in England?
Yep I am. They lost soundly in the last test and sure as shit won't win this one so it's looking at least 1-0 to the BCs comfortably.

Pakistan have done a good job of parking the bus mid-pitch.
Had no idea Savea was back in country already..

Barely a run an over to date, going to be a long day at this rate. Least there's a chance of the day being called off early if there's no chance of bowling them out.

There's basically no way Pakistan can score enough to win, they'd have to take some massive risks given there are no ODI bowling and fielding restrictions. You can get pretty cynical if the other team looks like scoring enough, I recall Mcgrath and co bowling a combination of bouncers and very wide full deliveries against us a few years back, making it impossible to keep up a scoring rate.
That's a great effort form the Pakistan openers. Not watching so can't comment on our bowling but to go wicketless in the first session against the new ball will give them a big boost.

I'd feel more confident if you said Pakistan were a shoe in to win now...

If Pakistan win I'll do a self-imposed ban...

Fuckin hell guys get some wickets.

Santner nabs Babar but this game is heading towards a draw.

Which in fairness is a great result against a strong Pakistan side. It will be interesting to see how they go in Aus. Younis will need to step up, but if Aus play like they did in the first two tests against SA then it could get interesting.
I am very happy with our start to the summer. Green seaming wickets, series victory. Next up.. Chappel-Hadlee series Bring it on.
