Well (It's been a while since I last did my blog about the 2019 Rugby World Cup final (In which South Africa dominated the final by beating England to win their 3rd RWC title), but my sincerest apologies ladies & gentlemen because I haven't been doing my blog lately until now but the rugby season here in New Zealand is over already as we are now into the cricket season already), after our disappointing T20 series against England (They won the 1st T20 in Christchurch before we had taken the 2nd & 3rd T20s in Wellington & Nelson before England won the 4th T20 in Napier with a unbeaten century from Englishman Dawid Malan to force a decider then this happened, the match had been tied in the 5th T20 (Chris Jordan had hit a four to save England from the jaws of defeat just like Ben Stokes in the Cricket World Cup final) at Eden Park in Auckland meaning that the T20 series had been decided in a super over so England once again dominant as well as completing the unthinkable yet again in the super over (Well that proved costly for New Zealand due to a lack of batting choices during the super over) just like in the 2019 Cricket World Cup final by taking out the T20 series but the Black Caps have copped a brutal cup final reminder in the hands of England (Their national cricket team did it because they beat New Zealand in the super over as a result of the boundary count back rule to win the Cricket World Cup in the final at Lord's in London but England's national rugby team repeated the dose just like the England national cricket team with a famous victory against the All Blacks in the semifinal of the Rugby World Cup in Yokohama, Japan), New Zealand have won the 1st of 2 tests at Bay Oval in Tauranga with Bradley-John 'BJ' Watling getting a double century when he scored 205 runs in the 1st innings along with all-rounder Mitchell Santner getting his 1st test century of his career then New Zealand pace man Neil Wagner has bagged a 5 wicket haul but the Stuart Broad LBW (It means leg before wicket but Pops says LB a lot all the time) decision (Broad had gone for the review but they had to lose a review as well as the test) proved to be a turning point of the test match in which the Black Caps won comfortably against England in which they won by an innings & 65 runs & go 1 - 0 up in the series.
So that is my 333rd blog of the year 2019 (MMXIX) & my 73rd of this year.
