Gaurav: "Surprised that you've not received any Kapil Dev 1983 comparisons? This Latham innings and early NZ collapse has to be the closest to that game. "
Sampath, our man who cracks the numbers before we can make sense of what's happening around us, tells me that Latham now has the highest score for a batter on his birthday in an ODI. Sachin Tendulkar held the record previously.
At 32/5 in 10 overs, New Zealand were staring down the barrel, but with partnerships of 57,90 and 42 with de Grandhomme, Doug Bracewell and Ish Sodhi respectively, Latham not only gave a semblance of respect to the total but probably has got them to a winning total. Brilliant knock

Klaassen to Latham, 1 no ball, Wow! Latham's presence of mind as he is given out is astounding! He was given LBW and he immediately says it was a no-ball as there were only three fielders in the rings as opposed to the four that should be. Amazing presence of mind
