Mithun scoring runs is annoying me. Should've had Wagner bowling short at him earlier today as he's had problems against that all series.

Henry has been neither good nor bad this series imo - I just wish he'd hit that great length attacking off-stump more frequently. He looks very good when he does that.

That over a microcosm of Henry's inconsistency. Usually it doesn't go for that many runs, but we had:
- two good balls attacking the stumps
- two harmless bouncers outside off
- half volley on leg
- two short of a good length and wide enough outside off to cut.

Someone needs to do some sort of dry and stats-based moneyball thing with him to increase the percentage of good balls.

Looking forward to seeing Young get a go.

But also makes me think, Kane is about the same age Martin Crowe was when he ****ed his knee. Got to make the most of it, as **** can get suddenly taken away from you.

Yeah, Crowe was unfortunate in that he injured his knee when a prop tipped him over his shoulder in the gym at High School. Then Graham Henry said he was ok to play and he badly injured it and never played rugby again. The knee wore out in his late 20's.

That's a bit of a dampener for Bangladesh. They are better than this surely. The test match is going to be finished inside 3 days. Great result for us to keep our ranking and none of the teams are easy to beat. They have to work hard for it and I'll have to say although till the game is not over it's not over, this game was as good as over by yesterday. If we can do some miracle in SL and get a series win there it would be an amazing run. Have we got any cricket other than world cup prior to that series?

Congrats Wagner, really deserved the 10 he'd have had if he'd picked up the fifth in the first innings.

Good to force a victory in 3 days. Bangladesh pretty bad though and once again their batting wasted the start they got in the first innings.

Nice work NZ. Although Bangladesh gave away some easy wickets in the end.

Also, with that last wicket Wagner’s average dipped to just below Boult’s. 27.51 vs 27.54.

At one stage in this test Southee's was under 30. Not often we have three sub 30 average seamers in the same side with 100+ wickets each.
