Its the sort of catch where if it wasn't 12 degrees he probably wouldn't have bagged it as it wouldn't have held up in his oversized jumper. Heh.

Mark Craig 1
Geoff Boycott 0
To be fair Boycott has been full of praise for Craig over the last couple of days. "Test of character", "fighting back from a bad game" etc. Although he seemed to hint that it was his quiet words to BMac about having Craig bowl a little faster that has made the difference ...

Such a character (Boycs), great to have him and Coney on the radio.

Lol These last two dismissals are the sort of thing we used to see from the great Aust team of the 2000s... just finding ways to get wickets.
these last two dismissals remind me of how they did the same back in gabba or whatever

Ya I know, same for Watling too. Just playing around, and pumped for NZ!

I won't be holding my breath with these dark clouds around. Just enjoying the fun while it lasts, but braced for bad weather to roll through to spoil it all.

Well done NZ, deserve this win.

How we can be losing to a spinner like Craig is scandalous. He is crap.
just wait until england get out of third gear

but really he does have the tools, turn, drift, flight, can turn it at a decent pace. he just bowls pies quite often

need to keep rolling them. the english weather might save them

i read in the thread we still drop to 4th below england even if we win which is weird because we're improving our result but whatever

Fourth below India. England would stay fifth.

Rankings don't care about who is at home. So they consider you drawing against an inferior opposition and think it's a poor result.

India is probably losing a lost test/series from the calculation and/or we losing a better drawn series or won test like 2011 Australia.
