Geez that was an awesome innings from Gibbs,If we had got him out early again we NZ would have been in with a good chance of taking the series.
Congrats to Mills for being awarded M.O.T.S after returning from injury.

I havn't seen all of Gibbs innings. His first 10 overs made me go to bed knowing we'd basically lost. Amazing start at least.

We played alright, but we scored too slowly. I don't like the batting order. Styris shouldn't have come in during the powerplay, Taylor or Sinclair should have. Styris is a middle over specialist. His lack of scoring during the powerplay put pressure on How who was starved of stike.

Gibbs should have been out LBW, but that's cricket.

Well done SA. Close series. a couple more runs and we would have won the first game. Mills fully deserves man of the series.
