***Official**** Sri Lanka in New Zealand 2014/2015

Fantastic knock, Astle keeps his record.

While I'm sad McCullum got out, I'm glad Astle keeps his record.

Aside from the rank full tosses/noballs, I actually think Kaushal ain't a bad prospect.

 

[Spark]

Most double tons in a calendar year (with Clarke 2012).

really? i thought he only had three

He would've equalled it.

Why are we batting like it's the powerplay overs and we need 12rpo to win? We're going to screw ourselves out of 500 at this rate.

Why have India almost bowled as many overs as Sri Lanka? What is happening over there?

Pretty sure at this rate we'll be the first team to score 1000.

Ball going round the park, stoppages in play, Sri Lankans slowing the game down

In other calendar Test runs record news, Sanga needs 303 to beat Yousuf's all-time record.. he will probably have 2 innings to get close to it by the looks of it..

It's remarkable given how few tests you lot play.

How is Roach the #8 ranked bowler in the world when he never plays

Relevance with this thread?

Also probably because when he does play he's pretty gun.

love it when WPWB has a go

 

[Zinzan]

So close yet so far, but how can we really complain about that. Incredible viewing.

In terms of records; just missed on

Fastest double ton (balls)
Fastest double ton (minutes)
Most sixes in an innings (equal with Akram's 12)
Most double hundreds in a Calender year (equal with Clarke's 4)

They have Ishant ahead of Philander though. Like seriously.
