Wow no Ferguson! I'd even have gone with 5 bowlers to get him in the team instead of Mitchell
me hahaWas anyone else watching Kumar there thinking don't when you knew he would?
he woke up this morning and though “nah **** you *****, i’m going to solely focus on the front foot no-balls” but forgot to do all the other hard stuff like making correct decisionslol Dharmasena
Is there a worse International umpire?
Joel Wilson.lol Dharmasena

Henry’s average as a new ball bowler is 34, and if he got an extended run in that role I tend to think that’s around where his average would settle.Don't disagree but I think Bennett is a cannier bowler and whether Henry has a mental block at Test level or whatever is making him average 45, well it might not be there for Bennett.
To be fair on him, he’s pretty much overcome that mental block in the last 12 months, I reckon.'Played Latham, looked excellent so far. Though this is the point where you start to get anxious for him. Go on and make it count.
That makes it sound like he’s morphed into late-career Brendon McCullum.The last 4 innings Latham surpassed 50 runs he scored 150+
TBF they were against Bangers and Sri Lanka and Latham is fairly gun vs. spin.That makes it sound like he’s morphed into late-career Brendon McCullum.
Big moment there. Taylor has 5 test 100s at Seddon. Good to see us reviewing successfully.facepalm
Have been pleased to see Taylor and Latham build this partnership - they're the two in the side who've maintained a high average the last while but a lot on the back of easy conditions/ easy opposition while others have done the hard work - so run here against a better attack on day 1 are good.
…. and that is incredibly lucky for Taylor.
