played kane. double it pls.

hope the rain stays away because barring a spectacular collapse this game looks like it will go down to the wire. a tight arm wrestle would be a fitting end to the series after two hidings.

well that was a pretty good day in isolation for nz. need a big one tomorrow to set them something over 200 and prefferably closer to 300. a modest score might be very defendable but I'd rather not test it.

This match is setting up to be a cracker and a fitting end to the series. Good day overall, would take it considering we were staring down the barrel of a big deficit at the start of the day.

I agree with everything straw man says. Ever.
That's pretty funny because I basically treated you two as the exact same person in my mind for years until you made a post saying you were "basically a libertarian". That made you special. :wub:

Good day for NZ means at the end of Day 3 things are completely even. I love Test cricket, it has been great entertainment as it usually is at Kensington.

Can't help but feel we let NZ off the hook this evening. The bowlers apart from Benn looked pretty damn good and the fielders let them down. Ramdin's keeping has deteriorated awfully since he got the captaincy. That lazy footwork is unacceptable and could potentially cost us the test.

Pleased with Holder and Roach's work. Can't believe how much better this bowling attack is when compared to the one they selected for NZ. It's like chalk and cheese.

WHAT!!

Libertarians are silly ftr :p

edit: Though I do love that a Libertarian is a Moderator on this forum, tasked with the job of restricting the freedom of those not deemed acceptable by the community. Sure you're not a commie in disguise?

The bad light was such a blessing for NZ. Williamson and McCullum were really struggling against Holder and if the Windies had a short spell from Roach and/or Taylor at the end there I would've backed them to take a wicket.

Just awesome test cricket though.

Great to finally see an even contest between these two teams. New Zealand will need around 250 IMO, if nothing else to ensure that Gayle thinks twice before playing another damaging troll innings.

I am pleased we are trucking along at 3.6 runs per over, make hay while the going is good and before the Windies can conjure up a wicket taking delivery.
