New Zealand v West Indies

.......and we're done.
Good shit BCs. Two innings wins in a row and correct me if I'm wrong but this puts us in the rarified air of being the number one rated test side in the world ! Wonderful stuff. What a shame the All Blacks have shit the bed in the last couple of years........a double would have been nice.
As someone said earlier anything less than two comfortable wins against this rabble wouldn't have been a success so good on them for never taking the foot off the pedal and hammering them. Rather unbelievable for our sketchy history we seem to have a 4th bowler at least as good and with the potential to be better than Southee, Boult and Wagner. Nicholls got huge runs when needed after KW was out and Rossco failed. A guy as good as Conway may have to wait a bit to get a chance.
This is just a terrific test team fellas, enjy while it lasts. I don't see any reason why we can't beat all comers this home summer.

All over Wags get the last wicket and NZ win by innings and 12
Top of the world!!! How awesome is that!!
Bloody awesome, something we should lap up while we can.
Wait for the naysayers to arrive though....but Australia this, but India that....
But nothing. BCs are equal number one ranked side in Test Cricket right now!

Feels very much like Wales being number 1 ranked in World Rugby rankings before the 2019 RWC....

But fucking nothing indeed! As long suffering fans we will take what we can get, so..
Suck on that, specifically Australia, India and England.

Best NZ attack ever
Best middle order
One of best ever openers
Wicketkeeper in conversation for best ever
KJ could develop into a genuine all rounder giving us plenty of options.How good is it to be a Black Caps supporter right now.
We don't quite have a Paddles or Bond......but there's also no Chatfield, Snedden, Morrison, Martin or other honest trier, these four are all fucken weapons in their own right. Jamieson is in danger of being my favourite current BC and his first class numbers indicate that potential all rounder status is more than justified.
For keeping it's Watling, BMac then a massive drop........I remember Smithy being fucken sharp behind the stumps but his hit or miss batting means he's not really in the converstation.

I'm referring to the "big three"

@No-Quarter I'm referring to the fact that the boks are still #1 in Rugby despite playing no tests recently, while the BCs are #1 in cricket because none of the others have played tests recently

And I'm saying I don't give a shit 😎
Anyway it'll be interesting to see how the lower ranked sides go in Australia this season.

I'm actually interested to see what the effect of India/Australia is on the rankings.

That's the big question. How well we do at home makes the series against Oz in Oz so frustrating. The way the BCs fucked that up conjured up horrific memories of crap teams from days gone by.
Pakistan have a better test squad than the Windies ( who doesn't ? ) but I still reckon anything less than 2-0 will be a letdown.

I read that BJ has now moved into the top 10 for test dismissals.
While this WI side isn't great by their own standards, they beat England (at home) a few months ago.

I think we're first equal, presumably with one of these 2 "lower ranked" sides.
