New Zealand v Sri Lanka 2023 Mar 9- Apr 8 (2 Tests, 3 ODIs & 3 T20s)

Maybe Williamson only second to Richard Hadlee as best Kiwi Test cricketer ever.
He certainly up there with Martin Crowe as their best batsman ever.

Just imo, but he's comfortably ahead of Crowe.

Be interesting to judge at the end of his career, as he's still (hopefully) got a few good years left.

Take the final two wickets and tie it. Would have been way better than two dot ball attempts.

Could have got top edge on both of them for catches....

ha ha. Maybe

Maybe the most insane ending to a test this year!

Remarkable given the one not even a week or so ago v England

I can hear all the sheep jumping up and down from New Zealand from here. Be careful. May create another earthquake there.

*in ay the campaigners did it again. Kane Thrilliamson take a bow.

 

[Jamurp]

Kane Williamson, damn, what a player he is! Great finish.

 

[Plugger35]

Williamson not even winning the player of the match award but it's hard to argue with Mitchell winning it with scores of 102 and 81, two crucial knocks.

WOW...how good is test cricket at the moment. There have only been 2 ties in history in over 2000 test matches, and the last 2 games in NZ both could have finished in a tie.

 

[HODGEYROAD]

NZ win 2 classics in as many weeks, unreal cricket.

If NZ got a run run on that last ball, it wouldnt have been a tie, as NZ still had 1 wicket in hand.

That approach would be utter lunacy

 

[Plugger35]

Looks like there won't be any play in the first session of the 2nd test, they are taking an early lunch and hopefully they will get some play after that.

 

[Plugger35]

Sri Lanka winning the toss and choosing to bowl first.

One change for each team with Doug Bracewell replacing Wagner and Madushka replacing Dickwella.

 

[yabsy]

I reckon we must be due a tie this test.

A good start from Conway and Latham, looks like one of those green pitches in NZ that doesn't seam as much as the bowling team thinks it will.

I reckon we must be due a tie this test.

Unlikely but with how the last couple of tests in NZ have finished you wouldn't rule it out.

Can't believe they haven't dropped Nichols, it's becoming ridiculous.

Can't believe they haven't dropped Nichols, it's becoming ridiculous.

Surely he is on his last chance in this test, if he doesn't make a decent score of 50 plus they should look at moving him on.

Phillips has been scoring well in the Plunket shield. Was the ideal series to give him a go.

Nichols is 15 innings without a 50. His time is up.

On the up side, Conway looks a million bucks so far.

 

[Plugger35]

Latham generously gifting Sri Lanka a wicket by hitting a catch to deep square leg.
