84th over: New Zealand 316-9 (Santner 51, O’ Rourke 0) Everyone scatters to the boundary rope for Santner. Potts on the money immediately, bright whites, bright light, strong balls. Strangely, the field doesn’t come in for the final ball, Santner steals a single and the strike.

And hello Kimberley Thonger. “Guten Abend Tanya, from a very merry Munich.

“I feel sure both sides will have been up all night watching Chris McCausland’s remarkable Strictly victory. Well done him.

“I’m reminded of the huge talent of Colin Milburn, of Northamptonshire and England, also with initials CM, who sadly lost most of his sight but battled on. The cricket writer Colin Bateman commented, “he was a clean, natural hitter of the ball who had an infectious zest for the game and life”. Bateman added, “he hit the ball with the strength of a lumberjack and he had the courage of a lion, but he was no Neanderthal clubber”.

“ If anyone has knowledge of Milburn’s dancing abilities I think we should know. My memory of his movement towards the bowler from the crease suggests the quickstep might have been his speciality.”
