lol Latham away from home is so bad
Not really 6 test 100s and 12 50s away from home better than a lot of Nz Batsmen
2 of those in Zimbabwe and t also the neutral UAE,2, remaining in Pak and SL, for me Zim should not even count. As @African-Monkey says nothing in decent opposition countries

Yeah hard to say where Latham will sit in the pantheon of NZ openers.
For me I think it’s Turner and Wright in an all time team.

That’s enough out of you
he's trying for the jinx, surely!
Trying, NZ captain not helping

Couple of decent or even edgy boundaries might change things. Momentum with the home town right now. Be good to take the crowd out of play

still better than others have done and played in the same countries toughest job in cricket opening the batting.
easy to bag the dude when you haven't walked in his shoes. -
That's hit a crack and reared up to hit Conway on the gloves.

Absolutely.
Facing the new ball, fuck all chances of not outs to boost the average…….
That’s why I admire Hayden, Cook and Sehwag as genuine modern greats for the records they have.
Gooch, Greenidge, Haynes etc the generation before.

Graeme Smith, Justin Langer and even fern favourite David Warner too.
Lathams record is pretty damn decent although there could be a few digs at him for being maybe a BIT of a home track bully.

Agreed but Wright faced all those horrible fast bowling greats of the 80s and 90s……not sure Lathams opponents have been as good overall ?

Anyway, he’s sitting in the shed, time for Conway to prove he’s a bloody good opener and see us home here !

Fuck I’d give anything for KW and Rossco to be sitting in the shed right now
Maybe not Rosco... not sure he'd go well in these conditions!
Yeah the slog sweep over cow corner might not work here
