tbf the comeback began in the second test where we were 5 wickets from a win, so I'd like to think we'd have done okay regardless. Still, this test has just been ridiculous. Is that even the right word?Our highest test total. If someone had told me we'd do that after the first Test I'd have struggled to keep a straight face. Amazing comeback, brought about by unusual and tragic circumstances...
Get a 50 each and set a new world record.Would be good if Boult and Sodhi could hang out there for another 20 minutes and get the score over 700
True, but I would've thought if we were to win it'd be more of a low scoring bowler dominated scenario rather than a gargantuan, potentially by an innings, effort. Got to actually get there first, but considering we have fielded 4 specialist batsmen, it's pretty insane.tbf the comeback began in the second test where we were 5 wickets from a win, so I'd like to think we'd have done okay regardless.

But the pitch is dead. They must declare nao. NZ are letting go of a win here.Get a 50 each and set a new world record.
I am not minding watching us pile on the runs.Get a 50 each and set a new world record.
nah our wins in recent times have come from batting first and batting big.True, but I would've thought if we were to win it'd be more of a low scoring bowler dominated scenario rather than a gargantuan, potentially by an innings, effort.

Speaking of handy tailsEven 5 years ago we arguably had the strongest. Sure it was because Vettori was averaging 40+ but still.
