lol, Had a horrible feeling this might happen this morning. No effort to score, just tentatively sitting on the crease. 14 runs off 14 overs is abysmal with a 250 run lead.

well it's not only sodhi anymore

trying to share the wickets around yesterday is looking a bit dumb right now.

when was the last time we didn't piss it away in the second innings when we have a lead? this always seems to happen.

Pissed off Baz incoming, by the looks of that camera angle.

Can confirm he looked just as pissed off when he walked past me on the way out to bad in the second innings at Wellington. We all know how that went.

bounce might have died even more. great bowling by jerome taylor, both because of the bowling itself and because the quick double strike might be crucial if life is about to get harder for the quicks.

If NZ truly implode, they won't be setting a record chase requiring target...

140 runs from here sets it exactly the same as the record.

Danny Morrison reckons three dot balls in succession is 'pressure'.

Because that's going to faze McCullum more than coming in at 4/14.

Love how every Shillingford wicket is reviewed, the commentators try play it off as checking front foot when his toe hardly hits the line :laugh:

Narine to play in Barbados Test | The Trinidad Guardian Newspaper

Fans in the Caribbean will be able to see mystery spinner Sunil Narine twirl his magic against New Zealand in the current Test series as a compromise has been struck between the Trinidadian and the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB). Narine stayed on to play in the Indian Premier League (IPL) finals for eventual 2014 winners Kolkata Knight Riders and missed the deadline to attend a camp in preparation for the current series.

The West Indies operations management team had set June 1 as the deadline for all players to show and Narine, as a result of missing this deadline, was ruled ineligible to play in the current three-Test series. However, T&T Guardian understands that negotiations will be ongoing between the player and the board and it has been agreed that he will sit out the first two matches and will be available for selection for the third and final Test in Barbados which starts on June 26.

No clear reason has been given for the decision but it is understood that the operations management team communicated to the WICB that they had a change of heart. The decision by the management committee which was ratified by the WICB led to debates around the region with most pointing to the fact that although there was this new policy in place called ‘Country First’, the punishment was too harsh.

Looks like these two have pulled them out danger. Think if they get into triple figures then NZ are close to safety, 140 and I'll call it finished.

Latham's had an impressive match with a key spot to claim, just as his partner looks to be heading out. Will be opening for the rest of this year at the very least afaic.
