Doesn’t get much worse than that from Conway, played all round it.

In Kane We Trust

Love me some late cuts from Kano. What a player.

Kane just makes a casual 6 look easy. Just great footwork.

MN5

KW test average currently 55.16.

Amazing

Was the third umpire seriously going to give that out LBW off the arm if it was hitting the stumps???

Yep, thankfully well outside the line.

36.1.3 the ball not having previously touched his/her bat, the striker intercepts the ball, either full-pitch or after pitching, with any part of his/her person

probably a fair comment for once from a fan on cricinfo

Rajiv: "The Rangana Herath element could be in full effect here. Despite being the spin bowling coach I'm sure he has imparted plenty on to the NZ batters on how to tackle spin"

Watched a fair bit of it today - good watching.

Of course, as soon as I start typing up a bit of commentary, Kane gets out.

Each time NZ is on a brink of a game changing partnership, they lose a wicket.

EDIT. And Ravindran too. Best I log off.

MN5

255/4. 50 behind.

We’ll take that. Enough batting left to build a handy lead if things go our way !

I know it is the BCs but I can’t see them collapse and end up less than 304….

@MN5 you've already been warned once. STFU with your positivity and optimism. 😠

This is the fucking Black Caps we're talking about.

Amateur.

A more appropriate post at the end of play when NZ are involved is. "We are fucking doomed. We are only 570 in front with nine wickets in hand and we will be batting last against Kenya. We have no fucking chance".
