Transcript
00:00I
00:04Gave him some room and
00:06Williamson very strong off the back foot thumps it away for four
00:11And up comes the 100 anything about it
00:15And that's a boundary
00:30He likes to use his feet and he's played this one really well
00:34Just down the on the side of the pitch
00:37And away it goes for four on England
00:43That's more orthodox from Kane Williamson another milestone for him is 16th
00:49Half century and test cricket. He hasn't been dismissed for under 50 in this series yet schools of 54 31 not out 69
01:01That's beautifully struck
01:03straight as a die
01:05For runs, it's glorious to be shot in the book and that Richardson will tell you that as well
01:11It's just gentle half-volley though. You know, it's 118 K half-volley
01:15And it gets hit down the ground just misses the stumps BJ Watling's thinks if he gets a touch I'm in trouble here. So
01:22He takes recovery action, but in all honest, it's just a beautiful example of the straight drive as good as you'll see
01:31Oh
01:37No, that's the chance they've been searching for and he's put it down
01:44No one Pradeep and a couple of goes at it went straight to him didn't have to move
01:52Bill directed bouncer Dhamika Prasad. He's been running in hard creates an opportunity again
02:00Second goal third Dean for five
02:06Beautifully played off his toes. That is a lovely stroke
02:10That's a boundary for Kane Williamson
02:16This is his zone
02:22Who gives the feet that's a feature of Williamson's batting
02:29This is a terrific shot, isn't it?
02:32Relies on flight does here at them
02:36Wilson's all over this and he between mid on and would work it all on the ground time to superbly
02:47Quick single
02:52Well played indeed and his teammates applaud another test century for Kane Williamson a
03:00remarkable young man of temperament
03:03just
03:04outstanding batting
03:06He's been he came to the crease in a very awkward position the blackcaps in that situation. But boy, he's fought through some
03:15Some pretty quiet times himself in his it started as an inks, but he's been terrific 243 balls for his hundred
03:28Straight off the gloves Williamson gets another chance another life. It was the bounce as much as anything else here. I reckon this is just
03:36Gone from a part of the pitch little bit of glove
03:41In the keeper, oh, it's one that should have been taken
03:47That's a crunchy drive Williamson just stands there
03:53That's a double potato swell for me that cover drive that is absolutely glorious
03:59The batting moment of the morning on the up
04:02wide of off stump
04:05Smashes it through a fairly strong cover field
04:11I don't know you get you got a broken arm when you're eating at Fritz's wiener. Oh, yeah
04:19Beautiful timing from Williamson
04:22cool
04:23That is special. You put your Fritz's wiener down and clap for that. That is a gorgeous cover drive. Oh
04:33He's got that past that'll go for four it'll be the 200 partnership as well
04:40excellent work
04:41From Williamson and whatling hundred and fifty up for Kane Williamson 200 partnership up
04:48brilliant stuff
04:49It has been it's been absolutely great to watch
04:54Captivating stuff from the two of them and from Williamson another milestone is 150
05:00Huge round of applause going around the base reserve and well-deserved
05:04465 minutes lots of balls as well
05:07And a good shot to bring it up. Just got a bit wrong here here. It's a bit wide but full the control sweep shot
05:16It's got that through the gap through the gap for four
05:23395 for five
05:26Yeah
05:31Nice shot good placement. I don't know if that was exactly where he wanted to hit that Williamson, but the result is what he was after
05:43Beautifully chipped
05:49And he gets to 200
05:52Ken Williamson made in double hundred surprised everyone
05:58With an unusual shot going over mid-wicket against the turn
06:02quality knock from a quality player
06:07Wow
06:11Put a stamp on that and send it back quick because he's in good form
06:18He's hit this like it was a throwdown
06:22He
06:24Has moved into that
06:26with the time and
06:28The precision that you see batsmen hitting throwdowns at the start of the day
06:34And he might have got it somewhere near the middle
06:42That look pretty straight the call from the field is around up go upstairs for that one. He's very wicket to wicket and
06:50So you can often predict
06:52Where the ball is going to go on is it going to go straight?
06:55It's a little bit of angle in that you can see middle enough, but that that league stump is not totally safe
07:01It's not gonna hit enough of it for mine. There you go. No hot spot. So it's straight out pad
07:06So what do we need we want more than half the ball has to be hitting league stuff
07:09No way that's happening for me with the distance. It has to travel. It's the angle. It was starting to take
07:13It's hit him in front of leg
07:16It's missing completely good decision
07:23That was my fear as well
07:28Way through covers again new ball with good timing. It's a race and the ball is one
07:40Fine and that'll go for four as well
07:45Oh
07:50Fine it's a good chase. He won't win it ball does
07:55For more McCain Williamson
08:00Fine use of the pace of
08:03The ball on the bat very little effort here from Williamson time the ball
08:08Just superbly look at that. It's just nothing more than a steer backward a point
08:12the middle of it
08:16That is a wonderful cricket shot
08:22500 comes up
08:25Great use of feet
08:27from Williamson here
08:29In waiting in waiting for an opportunity to play the shot. He's been holding himself back
08:35The greater good of the team
08:37Who is the prominent thought but here he was unleashing?
08:41Look at that. It doesn't get much better
08:46Straight through he's missed it Joe. I don't know
08:52He's missed what should have been a regulation stumping it'll be three buys
09:00Yeah, wait a long time for it
09:03Comes and you can't grab it. No Williamson looking to use his feet got inside the bat
09:10Joe wouldn't it
09:12Look like he was actually watching Williamson
09:15There we go. He's had enough Brendan McCallum
09:19Declaration time here at the Basin Reserve and yes, the partnership will remain unbroken for all time
