  1. The only fly in that ointment is that the Saffers are not likely to declare and give the Black Caps a sniff; it's not in their DNA

    1. Hopefully the lure of the number 1 spot in world cricket, our traditionally shaky batting lineup and a potentially tricky 5th day pitch will be enough to make them set a total.

      You're probably right though.

    2. Didn't they need to clean-sweep the series to take the #1 from England?

    3. Yes, but 2-0 will get them closer than 1-0. England are also about to play a series in Sri Lanka.
