Hope New Zealand win this and the series like Bangladesh did in Pakistan.

 

There's no fun in beating them 3-0 after they lose to freaking Sri Lanka. 

In Jan 2023, NZ played a 3 match test series vs Pak in Pak.  The result was 0-0.    Goes to show how poor NZ are in Asia, if they can't even win a test against Associate level side (Pooks). No way they are winning this test or the next one in SL.

Kane has played 100 tests already, stop the myth that NZ don't play enough tests. 

[Trichromatic]

NZ halfway through.

 

Great test.

What did he say?

[Frustrated]

NZ lose the 5th wicket

[Frustrated]

NZ 171/6.  

[Old guy]

this is gonna be close 

[rageaddict]

NZ need 100 runs while SL need 4 good balls. 

 

SL heavy favorites now, Don't see how NZ can get the remaining 100 runs on a difficult track.

All over for NZ.     NZ 203/8.   Easy win for SL in the end.  

[Old guy]

time to hit out rachin

[Lone Wolf]

Want RR to score a ton and Kiwis to lose.

Lankans need to wipe them 2-0..  fggin saxons 

[cowboysfan]

i dont think we have any pitch in india with this much turn and bounce now.

[Lord]

This Santner is so overhyped here. Should have won them the game in these conditions.

Mumbaikar and Bangalorean trying to fend off the Lankans 

[rageaddict]

Rachin should try doing a Stokes tomorrow with the last few wickets..

Spot on.  Every lankan spinner looks like picking a wicket any moment. There is viscious turn & bounce on this pitch.  Yet santner looked toothless throughout the test,  despite having a decade of intl experience.
