• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Black Caps in India.
• 0:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a phenomenal result. And I mean it's
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: a few days afterwards now, is it, but worthy of
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: reflection in that I think it's one of New Zealand's
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: most historic cricket feats. For my mind, it's a bit
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: of a holy grail. I mean, to win in India
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: sixty nine years in trying and then to just take
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: a series there just is me. Mitchell Santner hats off.
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: I mean, just thirteen wickets in the Test match by
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: far and away his most outstanding performance in the white
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: at least for New Zealand and India. Not beaten in
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: the Test series at home since twenty twelve. No Williamson,
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: no Bolt these days in the side, or Williamson's out
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: injured at the moment. I just thought it was one
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: for the ages.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: Brilliant. Would it be like someone coming here and beating
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: the All Blacks at Eaton Park or something?
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's a bit like I suppose Ireland coming
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: and winning a series against the All Blacks a few
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: years agow.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: Yes they did. Yeah, all right, well that's great. You're
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: very toughed about this.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: That's a bit of a high for us. Cricket tragics
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: out there.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: Can I just bring up a point that's been bugging
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: me for the last week please? Last weekend everyone went
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: nuts and said this was the best weekend of New Zealand,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: of sport for New Zealand. Ever, Yeah, wasn't that just
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: by chance that there were randomly all these finals we
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: were involved and on the same weekend?
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: Perhaps slight hyperbole right in the circus there's people you know,
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: touch in the in the now or just recency biases
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: how it's described.
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: It is.
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: It is because they've plenty over the years. But there
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: was a good one.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: I know it was good and I don't want to
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: take away from minute or to burst the bubble. No,
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: but just you know, we're not comparing apples with apples.
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: It's not like we did well at the Olympics. That's
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: quite a unmeasurable finite time with a number of sports,
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: and it's you know, you can compare year on years.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: It was just an enjoyable time for sports fans to
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: be engaged. A number of codes.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Liam Austin, so he's given the middle finger.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: I thought you probably struck struck a call with a
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: number of motorists there on any road in New Zealand
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: at any given time. I mean, what's your first reaction
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: when you are annoyed? I mean, I don't know. There's
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: a temptation to flip the bird, isn't it.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah? There definitely is. Yes, I think you swear first.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I was just quite. I mean these guys, yeah,
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: you know, and you're going get three hundred k's or
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: whatever your life slashing before your eyes, even if you're
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: a normal motors in your life slashing before your eyes. Yeah,
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: there is that temptation, isn't it. Well, you know, I'm
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: going to go down here, but yep, I'm going to
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: flip the bird in the in the process.
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: So is he?
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: Is he? He's doing all right though, isn't he?
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: I think so. I mean he's probably offended a few
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: people with with maybe he's been aggressive and he's been forthrighting.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: Is he's got to push for for holding this formuly
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: one seat? Yeah, and he's going to fight for it and therefore, yeah,
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: he's some raw reactions probably what you would expect in
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: those in those circumstances.
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: These silver firms have won their Constellation Cup for the
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: third time in fourteen.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: Attempts they have. I caught some of the back end
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: of that. I was astonished actually just how dominant they
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: were over the Diamonds. Given the backstory recent years Diamonds
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: World champions, et cetera. This team has just turned around.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: They've lost the series to England, They've turned around, They've
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: won the Constellation Cup. It was just pretty much flaws.
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: I mean, they had they put the Australian goal shooting
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: attack under so much, the shooting circle under attack, so
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: much pressure. Grayson Wecky was a star under the hoop,
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: but she was getting such brilliant ball from the mid court.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: It was just flying down their time after time and
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: it was just out and out dominance brilliantly.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well done.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: I mean fourteen, eleven and eighteen goal victories are now
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: potentially a clean sweeper in Melbourne tomorrow.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Another great weekend of sport.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah right up there with the would we call it
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: the second best weekend of sport New Zealand. Andrew Ortison was, well,
• 3:58
