Perfect innings in terms of what Hesson wanted from him.

Yeah, who woulda thunk that forcing a captain to set a more attacking field could result in wickets falling.

So strange.

I've said this before but I think the batsman mindset change is the biggest factor. By labeling it they feel they have to totally change their gameplan.

Thank **** that that wasn't called a dead ball.

It's bloody ridiculous that that's not a no ball.

I'd happily bet that Finn would have it sorted within a game if it cost a run each time.

Well it's cost him key wickets, and apparently when he's smacked for 4 it's allowed, not really seeing any advantage for him, and he's trying a shorter run-up to counter-act it.

Tbf, the first ever time it happened to him, it cost him a big wicket. I think things like this are much harder to get deal with than a lot of people think.

Meanwhile, not looking forward to the three overs of Woakes. Why does Broad have the same number left up his sleeve?

First there was Lance Cairn's one handed six.
Then there was Brendon McCullum's slip six.

It's no less trying to gain an advantage than overstepping the crease in my view.

Will McCullum reach 100 before Taylor?
