Sports Black Caps

Should be some rain over Wellington right about now. With all due respect to the good crowd at the Basin today hopefully the afternoon is wiped out.
 
Game is getting interesting at 7 down. Still a mountain to climb but its looking more Cook than Everest. They have to get the last 3 out extremely cheaply to have a sniff at a chase of well less than 400 for an unlikely win. So annoying that partnership of 100 yesterday that should never have happened, otherwise things would be very interesting right about now.
 
Another great bit of leadership by the Black Caps.... don't bowl Phillips in the first innings and then he nearly gets a hat trick in the second.

The Black Caps used to be the best fielders in the game. That drop was a shocker.

Kuggeleijn really needs to repay the faith shown in him by batting sensibly if its needed. He's largely had a test match to forget so far.
 
Great effort in this session. They need to have some self belief with the run chase and chip away with the weather likely playing a part. No run outs for Kane please.
 
We sure do have some players in a rut. Together with our casualties it doesn't make for pretty results.

Who on Earth plays for O'Rourke next game?! I'm sure Wagner won't reverse his decision. Santner, to leave us a quick down?

If O'Rourke is out it might have to be, with a bit of extra medium pace work from Daryl Mitchell.
