I'm glad we didn't get the 340-360 we should have. It will be interesting to see Craig and Santner having to defend a score like this.

Stream keeps freezing for me, which is annoying.

But, uhh, these guys can bowl with a pink ball.

the pink ball definitely swings.
i didnt see the start of new zealands innings but the talk around these day night games has always been that the pink ball swings more at night.

tbf though you'd back southee and boult to get more swing out of any ball than siddle, steketee and behrendorff

Not sure whether it's a case of the ball swinging more or the batsmen picking it up slightly later so it looks like it moves more. Seems to be a touch of trouble picking it up early under lights.

Where has Dougie's hooping swing gone?
lol we've been wondering that for about 4 years. He gets fairly consistent defence from Flem, and to be fair his role has changed significantly as he's no longer an opening bowler. And he did decently against SL...but yeah. Neither he, nor Henry, nor Wagner inspire a huge degree of confidence as 3rd seamer.

Wagner getting pretty frothed up about the situation btw, overseas posters. Nearly a year without a run in Tests.
