@henrymoeranBBC Double super over. Must be nice. #nz

That surely, unequivocally, has to be the greatest finish to a game of T20 cricket in history? Ding, dong and everything in between.

Double super over. Must be nice

@shortflyslip And Howard Joseph, All Black

The Christchurch BHS 1st XI of 1965, in which David Trist and Robert Anderson - both of whom have passed away in the last few days - played. Also includes future NZC CEO Chris Doig, Test cricketer Dayle Hadlee and Olympic hockey gold medallist John Christensen.

@mummabear358 @DiabolicalSpuds Did they support Cliff Young in his later years?

@DiabolicalSpuds That’s the Twinnies, Paula and Bridgette, they run a bird rescue on the sunny coast. They are identical twins and how they were in the video is how they are in real life Two beautiful, lovely women along with their Mum who do so much for local bird wildlife

holy shit there is nothing that can prepare you for when they cut to the interview

@rencarrot @backofalength_ Glenn Turner's two centuries in our first test win v Aust, Chch 1974. The winning runs , a big flowing cover drive boundary by Ken Wadsworth off Greg Chappell. I was lucky to be there.

What's your favourite NZ v Aus cricket moment?? Drop your answer below and we'll feature the best answers in our next @backofalength_ episode, when we preview the upcoming series #nzvaus

@shortflyslip or deciding how much nomey they get

screenshot for when they eventually fix it.

Haha journalist tries to write serious cricket article about money but refers to Middlesex's remuneration committee as "renumeration committee" three times. Presumably this is the committee responsible for deciding the players' shirt numbers. dailymail.co.uk/sport/cricket/…

@Sportsfreakconz Thrashed 10-6 in the third set

Just when we thought next year's Hallbergs were going to be really straight forward

@Sportsfreakconz Classy, elegant and the epitome of Jack Gleeson's "play the game at pace and be a thinker". RIP

RIP Bruce Robertson, at the top table of All Black centres. Remembered for many things, including his principled stand in not playing against the 1981 Boks.

The Masters is one of my favorite sporting events, and its 85+ year history brings some great traditions. So here's a running list of the most interesting facts: 1. Media tickets (badges) have RFID tags inside them so the club knows where each person is at all times.

@shortflyslip Great service. Thanks

@Sportsfreakconz no, got distracted setting fire to the roadside with flaming tennis balls

Did the Maadi cup winning St Bede's 8 get to do a celebratory ride on the airport carousel on the way home?

The best thing my students ever gave me. I thought they were just really diligent note-takers the whole semester, but it turns out they were compiling a book of all the craziest things I'd said, all *very much* out of context. It's 152 pages long.

@Sportsfreakconz Palma Stnorth

What have the Spaniards done to deserve that?

@boysgetpaid Thanks guys, you can't win em all and it was a lot of fun

@Flav_Bateman @QuicklyKevin

This is Mac Allister's dad. Never forget.

@GuerinSports why isn't use of the synthetic track part of the long term contingency plan, even for group races, along with refunding all existing bets? i know owners are important, but surely a long term plan should prioritise the saturday crowd and tv audiences?

Riccarton’s mammoth 1000 Guineas meeting abandoned after three races when a horse slipped. Biggest crowd of the year so a total financial mess. No idea yet when remaining races will be held but Monday could be a chance.

@GuyHeveldt And a synthetic track right there. Acknowledging there are non-refundable bets on etc, but why wasn't that part of the contingency planning?

What an absolute blowout for the industry. Jockeys need to be safe, good on them standing up. But that can't happen on a big day with great weather all week. Wowee.
