There is nothing as liberating in this beautiful game of ours as slaying the beast that is the four-pronged pace attack

What a great way for Stephen Fleming's CLEAR Black Caps to finish the season

As I was watching the last day of the second Test last week I thought a result wouldn't be possible after another four days of play
