@virgil I'm sure I don't know what you mean...
Twelve overs for the Lankans to face. I nominate Southee and Wagner full throttle since they did nothing with the bat.
Fuck old mate Southee gets shit on here. He got six fucken wickets!!!!

Says the man still merrily bagging Santner who has been out injured for nearly a year...!

Highest ever score while carrying bat I believe. Cook number two and Turner 3.
An incredibly impressive feat of concentration to bat for that long and that well. Especially with ten others falling by the wayside at the other end.

You mean the all rounder who's not actually that good at either discipline?

@cyclops Also first NZer to do so in NZ apparently.
Yep, Turner did it once at Lords and once in Kingston I think. The Kingston one was the double ton, part of the 72 series where he got 2 doubles along with Terry Jarvis.
Fantastic series that was for NZ. (Been talking about it all today) -

91, 50, 50, 49 and 43 isn't really falling by the wayside.

So like many all rounders in NZ cricketing history, with a few notable exceptions?
Neesham and Anderson haven't played in a while, perhaps they need a few passing swipes at?

And yet he outlasted all. I'm in awe of that level of concentration/survival/run scoring/sheer ability to bat that long without stuffing up.
