O'Rourke obviously has to play the Australia tests now.
Part of me wishes we'd saved him until then and ambushed the Aussies, rather than giving them the chance to study video footage from the last few days. But that's probably a fair trade-off with the confidence boost that he should take from this performance.

Well that innings finished a lot quicker than I expected, it was looking like a lead of 300 or more with Bedingham and Petersen batting.
Impressive debut from O'Rourke with a 5'fer and 9 wickets for the match, he has definitely put his hand up for the test series v Australia.

Okay score card to wake up to. Well done to Bedingham.
Do you remember all how fuming Duminy was when WP/Cobras lost Bedingham to overseas. Because CSA where sitting around twiddling their thumbs and not selecting him for national duty. A big positive from him this series.

No he needs to continue the subterfuge of being weak to right arm around the wicket, at which point during the Australia series he's going to cash in by taking the Aussie attack to the cleaners

I like the cut of O'Rourke's jib.
He, Henry and Jamieson seems like a good attack to me.

As much as I'd love to see NZ win this easily, this pitch has made for a fascinating test.

Fundamentally, noone else we have is going to bowl a ball at 137-140km/h that seams and rears off a length ot take a wicket. The rest of the bowling attack can cover if he has an off day and allow him to only be used in short spells. So I agree, he now makes my XI for the first test vs Australia. Doubly so if Jamieson is out.

Conway's back baby.
This was clearly the intention all along, leave enough runs for him to get himself back into form in the fourth innings.
