Too soon to bank this? TNZ did bloody well, the Caps are de-crapping themselves ... just need the womens T20 to cap off an epic weekeng!

Almost makes up for everybody's disappointment over Canturbury losing yesterday.

I don't like it though, on another day he gets out to that. Doesn't need to take the risk

[canefan]

What a win this is. No Kane, on the back of a series loss to SL

[Crazy Horse]

Never doubted them.

[canefan]

First win in 36 years. Amazing

[nzzp]

Well played Young Ravindra. Top effort.

[MN5]

This is an amazing victory. One of the best in all my years of watching the BCs.

To win like this over there ? Extraordinary.

No KW.

Ravindra showing absolute class.

Young showing nerves and being there at the end.

Conway getting runs.

Our pace men tearing up when they needed to.

The turnaround after Sri Lanka ? Wow, who the fuck woulda picked that ?

Hats off boys, you were brilliant.

[No Quarter]

Despite all the noise from the crowd, India and the commentators, we did that easily in the end. That's a hiding.

Geez, 33% with just 20 runs to get?

You haven’t contributed to this thread all match, don’t try and hop on the bandwagon now.

I highly doubt you've contributed either.

I’d tell you to get fucked if I wasn’t in a state of euphoria

( still love you bro xx )

[KiwiMurph]

Absolute legends the lot of them.

Brilliant win.

This is why fans were calling for Ravindra to be given an extended run in the side.

[nzzp]

How big was that Kohli wicket by GP eh.

The balance of the side is so much better now - feels like a keeper with better technique is on our radar though

Yep, it actually is. If they’d even got a hundred more in the first innings that could have been extremely close.

To do this with Mitchell, Blundell, Phillips etc still to come.

Spanking.

Spanking.

you talking about the game still, or is that a verb?

[Canes4life]

Bloody great result in the end there. Henry on the first day was sublime and Ravindra.. well he speaks for himself. Fantastic.

[Canes4life]

Who gets player of the match? I’d go with Ravindra just from the absolute poise he showed at the crease. Henry unlucky.

[MN5]

Three candidates for MOM.

Given we’re in India I’m sure they’ll pick the batsman so it’ll be Ravindra despite some terrific efforts from Henry and O’Rourke….

Some terrific contributions from Conway and Young’s poise is worth noting too. Can’t be easy filling in for KW.

[Donsteppa]

Quite happily basking in that win. A long time between drinks, going back to the days of R J Hadlee and J G Wright.

[Damo]

I think O'Rourke is MOTM. His spells in both innings won us the game.

Ravindra will get it because the game is biased towards batsman.
