Kane batted like the champion he is today but this innings by innings hyper-analysis of the fab 4 rankings needs to settle down. A month ago Kane's name was being scrubbed from history because he couldn't hit it off the square in a T20 game.

Terrible for us who they are actually playing though. Starting at 1 am is awful and when you wake up before lunch to that any thoughts of watching go out the window.

Do people actually pay attention to what they do in hit and giggle match?

You don't get to dish out banter when you're never around to receive it

I take it back actually after reading the FTP. Sri Lanka is touring next summer, that's a rare event for you guys.

Not banter, with you it is trolling pure and simple. Always has been.

Is it great for the game when one team is getting blown off the park all the time though? I'd love to see the stats of the Test day-night matches. We saw WI crumble In England, we've seen NZ lose heavily In Aus? And now this. I think WI/Pak may have had a decent day-night game In the UAE a few years ago but apart from that it's been one sided from what i can tell.

i have a solution
move over Le Mans, 24 hours of test cricket per day, for four days so the money brigade can get a nod too, is the new world order.
-tv audiences all over the world can see some play, bringing in some sweet sweet advertising revenue
-we could interview players during the game for that fan interaction. warne could discuss their pizzas with them during play.
-the ultimate test of endurance for a test cricketer.
-if a player gets injured you could chuck him in the sheds or the hospital to fix him up to get him back out there, and the commentators could cross live to the hospital to follow the drama
-if smith and rabada go at each other you could release the safety car to deal with them F1 2017 glitch style and take them both out of the match
im convincing myself
NZC site has videos, including 5 min highlights from today, not sure if it is geo-blocked.

Do you recall the first D/N test? Was relatively a close contest and in no way was predominantly one-sided. Would have been closer had it not been for Kumar "where are my glasses, i can't find my glasses" Dharmasena.

And much of that has been down to the mods
. It's tough to be around when your team Is as lousy as mine. Sometimes you just find other things to spend your time on.

Already very high, Southee's has dropped a bit of late but Boult has always been rated.

No, although the FTP was made in 2014 so the numbers are guaranteed to change at least.
Even with the CWC taking place not long after, NZ having 8 tests, 11 ODIs and only 5 t20s during the 18/19 summer seems like the real joke.
