This tour has been the first time I've had a good look at Harry Brook and he is a delight to watch with the bat. Some of his strokeplay was just sumptious and England must be very happy at the start he's made to his Test career. I'm looking forward to seeing how he picks things up this evening.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
At the same time this is a ragged NZ side, on a poor run. But it's still Test experience for Brook and sets up the prospect of a tantalising summer, with the Ashes in England.
Australia haven't had their woes to seek in India, it's always been the least happy of their hunting grounds. English pitches will suit them far better though and Cam Green seems to have cemented his place as a bowling batsman, or maybe a batting bowler. This makes a massive difference to the Australian attac, giving them two pairs of quicks, as well as Lyon, as well as the jobbing spin of Smith and Labuschagne. Big questions for both sides remain around the top order though.
Back to the Bay of Plenty and Kane Williamson needs a mere 33 runs to become New Zealand's leading run-scorer in Test cricket. I hope to see that, he's been a marvellous player for a long time and also sems to be held in massively high regard around the cricket world.
