Brilliant Blackcaps!

This is mainly for Reuben, but also for the other cricketing fans amongst you.

In the 3rd ODI between NZ and the West Indies, batting first the Blackcaps got 283 for 3. Now you may be wondering what is so remarkable about that, well, because it had been raining almost all day in Queenstown, the runs came off 21 overs!! What was even more special was the batting of Corey Anderson and Jesse Ryder. Together they posted 191 for the 4th wicket! Corey Anderson broke the world record for the fastest hundred ever, brining it up in 36 balls, and finished with 131* off 47 balls!!! Jesse Ryder also got heaps of runs, getting 104 off 51 balls!
Hopefully the bowlers can go on to defend this outstanding total!!

Happy New Year and we will see you soon.
