Blackcaps finish day four against South Africa in strong position - Third Test

The black caps have smell of blood in their nostrils after a south African second- innings batting collapse has handed them a winnable position for the final day of their test decider in Hamilton. Notching a 175-run lead after being bowled out for 489 on Tuesday, New Zealand went on to limit the Protea to 80-5 at stumps on day four and decimate their opponents' upper order.

Adam Milne ready for return

Adam Milne could be forgiven a few days in the last couple of years when "why me run his thought processes.

His closeness with the medical profession is not borne of affection but rather claim as the young quick bowler has had to bounce back from injury mishaps to test the most secure of mindsets.

So there will be plenty of goodwill towards the Central Districts speedster when he takes the field against South Africa at Eden park tomorrow for the opening game of their New Zealand tour.

He's had a roll of injuries, from shin splints working his way up to the elbow injury in the middle of last year and the side strain picked up while bowling in the nets to the New Zealand batsmen before the Bangladesh test in Christchurch late last month.
