Latham with the ton now too, doesn't get any better than that. WI will have one foot on the plane but their bowling lineup is very good, they rolled the Aussies a few times, so good to see these two score runs against a decent attack.
Yeah they used up all their fight and competitiveness in the drawn match I feel. They're going through the motions now.
Great that Latham got a much deserved ton too.
150 up for Conway great knock..and
record opening stand in NZ
Didnt expect that when we started batting this morning
Conway 150.
....and with 276 for 0 they have just broken the record for the highest opening partnership in NZ.

old news 
Part of me is waiting for half of the bowling squad to fall over the drinks in the sheds and become unable to bowl

Think of poor little Kane being padded up all day.
He gave up part way through the third session and made Ravindra do it instead.
Is it bad that part of me is glad the Turner/Jarvis partnership wasn't broken? For all his faults, Turner is one of our greatest batters and I think it's fitting that he has a place in our record books.
Fantastic day. Conway locks in his place for the England tour. I hope Mariu still makes the squad though. Good to see Latham back in the runs too. How often has an NZ batter got 2 tons in a series?
Grossly irresponsible for Latham to get out so late in the day and expose the night watchman.
He should be taking a long hard look at himself in the mirror after that.

Lol a night watchman, come on haha.
There may have been a hint of sarcasm
What an amazing day of batting.
Great to see Conway back in form moving better, still vulnerable to the 5th/6th stump line but that is something he has to work around with his technique.
He is a nice batsmen to watch when playing well, very fluid bat.
Awesome from Tom Latham getting past 6000 test runs 2 centuries in the series and getting his 15th test century closing in on Taylor and Crowe he could end up as the player with the 2nd most test centuries for new Zealand.
Under rated bat but the gritty opener teams need.

@Cyclops Was it Taylor I remember grabbing a couple against them in 2016 if my patchy memory serves me correctly.
3 in 2013-14, but a very purple patch: https://www.espncricinfo.com/records/series/batting-most-runs-career/west-indies-in-new-zealand-test-series-2013-14-8475

33 if the filter has been set up correctly - this being the 33rd time.
