The Notcher's Natter

In the current Test between New Zealand and West Indies at Mount Maunganui, Tom Latham (137 & 101) and Devon Conway (227 & 100) have become the first opening batters who both scored centuries in both innings of any first-class match.

The closest previous instance also took place in New Zealand: Bert Sutcliffe (141 & 135) and Don Taylor (99 & 143) for Auckland v Canterbury at Auckland in January 1949.

I'm not sure I understand why the Blackcaps are still batting.

#DevonCONWAY you legend! Cranks out another 100 to go with his double in the first innings. #TomLATHAM closing in on a second ton too. Thoroughly enjoying this. #NZvWI πŸ‡³πŸ‡ΏπŸ
420 seems like an appropriate score for the #WestIndies to be bowled out for in its first innings against #NewZealand in the third and final test between #NZvWI #cricket.
