TDK's International Test Cricket Update's

[jackpot jim]

Hands up who could have imagined NZ having a lead of 600 late on Day 3 after being 6/60 odd on Day 1 ?
Astonishing stuff
Hows the pitch tho?
After producing 20 wickets for stuff all over the 1st Day and a bit, its now the friendliest featherbed Rd one could imagine playing on.
How the Aussies would love to swap pitches with them now?
De Grandhome just brings up the FASTEST Test 50 for NZ ever off only 28 balls

[Keefy]

NZ declare at 4/585

Nicholls 162*
de Grandhomme 71* off 45 balls

Sri Lanka require 660 to win and are 2/9
