The pitch isn't entirely green today, and it is detectable from the outfield as well. The pitch condition isn't so bad. Actually, South African players has shown some poor performance today. Although New Zealand has lost their first three wickets, but they are at the front seat of the match now. They will win the match for sure if the rain doesn't interrupt in the game.
Yes I too saw the pitch in highlights and its not totally lush green. Also pitch is same for both teams. IMO ICC must have some regulations on making pitches, every country make pitches according to there own standards. Thats why a team performing well in test at home series totally collapsed when it travel to some other country.

South Africa is all out for 95 runs, i was not aware it was a Test match and New Zealand is already leading by 101 runs and there is no chance for a comeback by South Africa in this match because of their pathetic performance in the first innings. Matt Henry took 7 wickets and that is his best performance till date and this is just the second day and it looks like the match will be over by the 4th day.

South Africa experienced similar play with the first match of the previous series against India. In that match it didn't perform as worse as this innings. After losing the first test against India, South Africa managed to win the rest of the test matches and won the series. Maybe from the next match South Africa could make a strong recovery. Anyhow this match has gone into the hands of New Zealand and there is very thin chance for a draw.

As of now, New Zealand is leading by 230 runs. They are the WTC champions and this was expected from them. South Africa put up some resistance against India at home, but they literally got blown away and shredded to pieces in New Zealand. Once again, proves that the gap between the pig-4 and the remaining test nations is getting wider. And the irony is that the New Zealand team includes several players who had to leave South Africa because of the quota system, such as Neil Wagner and Devon Conway.

South Africa recently beat India in Test and ODI so we can't say big 4 are way ahead of other countries in terms of cricket quality. This match is very much over as NZ now leading by 300 runs with one wicket still in hand. It's day 2, so we must have result of this game.

This is the worst performance from Protease in New Zealand in last 90 years as they completely fail and all out on 95 with now New Zealand is having massive lead of 387 last tenth wickets done good damage with partnership of 94 runs. Brilliant batting from Nicholls, Blundell and Henry now in second inning South Africa again in deep trouble with 34 for 3 with Elgar and Markarm both gone right now last hope Dusan and Buvma on crease but most chances this match is going to end on third day with an inning win for current WTC champions New Zealand a great win for their in second edition of WTC even recently South Africa done good job at home against India but here they are badly struggling.

I really don't see South Africa making a comeback in this match. The first inning collapse will hurt them throughout the match unless something magical happens, and they bowl out New Zealand in the second innings for something around a hundred. But I don't see that happening because the pitch is becoming more batting-friendly as the days go by.

~ This is the worst performance from Protease in New Zealand in last 90 years as they completely fail and all out on 95 with now New Zealand is having massive lead of 387 last tenth wickets done good damage with partnership of 94 runs. Tom Blundell missed his century and almost all the players played well. South Africa is struggling in the second innings as well as they already lost 7 wickets for 97 runs and this will be another record for them as they will be loosing by a huge margin. They outplayed the hyped up India but New Zealand is exposing their batting weakness ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) . South Africa needs to find some good batsman to replace their legendary players of the past, if not it will be pathetic situation to see them struggle against all the teams

All done and dusted. South Africa blown away for just 111 runs in their second innings after their two digit total in the first. This time Tim Southee Picked up 5 wickets, while Matt Henry finished with a match total of 9. Neil Wagner and Kyle Jamieson also picked up crucial wickets. South African batting resembled like an amateur club side, and their bowling wasn't much better either. And New Zealand did all this without some of their key players such as Trent Boult, Adam Milne, Glenn Phillips and Kane Williamson.

The absence of Kane Williamson and Trent Boult does not pose a major problem for mighty New Zealand. Henry had an outstanding performance. The performance by South Africa was disappointing after their series victory over India. They were playing under difficult conditions. Home advantage is easy, away advantage is more difficult. Away umpires are also different from home umpires!

Just when we were saying that South Africa are back on track after there recent performance this test match happens. Its South Africa biggest ever defeat in Test and 12th in general biggest test defeat. Nothing from South Africa in this test to discuss. One more test to go, lets see whether SA can save the series or not. Away umpires are also different from home umpires!
Are you referring to how Dean Eagle DRS decision changed the game result in SA favour ?

In just three days NZ ended the test match. Getting defeated by an innings and 276 runs proves it will not be easy for SA in next and last test match. They comfortably had beaten India before this test match, what happened now? Great bowling by Tim Southee those 5 wickets are the reason for NZ win

A good team need to perform good in all grounds not just on there home grounds. In India vs South Africa test series, SA won by 2-1 we cant say SA won the series quite easily as India played good in all three test matches. Seeing the performance of SA in first test match its very much clear that SA wont be ale to save this series though anything can happen in cricket.

This field in Christchurch is lucky for New Zealand. And here they build the pitch to get the opponent in trouble, to their advantage. After losing the first match against Bangladesh, New Zealand won the match by an innings and 117 runs. Now they have beaten South Africa by an innings and 276 runs. South Africa could not predict the codification of the pitch so they had such a batting disaster. We will see an improvement in their performance in the upcoming matches.

NZ has played 11 test match at Hagley Oval, Christchurch and so far lost only one game here (vs Aus in 2016). In last three test encounters against SA, Bangladesh and Pakistan they have won by an innings. Pitch may be a factor here as all three teams batting collapsed miserably here but NZ batting clicked very well at Hagley Oval, Christchurch. .

And I think the main reason for New Zealand's remarkable performance is the pitch on the field. I watched several matches at Hagley Oval. The batting of New Zealand's opponents was disgusting. Although the team was in form, their batting order was badly broken. No batsman has been able to stay at the crease for long against New Zealand bowlers.

You may be right that pitch may be one of the key factor at Hagley Oval but on same pitch NZ is scoring tons of runs. NS have only played one inning in last three matches, 482 vs SA, 521 vs Bangladesh and 659 vs Pakistan. These days touring countries get idea of pitches through there domestic cricket. So its SA fault that they didn't come prepared against this pitch.

-Sri Lanka at the top and they would like to draw 1 test against India. if it happens then they might fancy their chances. -Australia stat padded enough against Poms, now their majority of series are in Sub-continent. If they succeed then they deserve to be in the finals. -Pakistan has a strong claim. -Proteas chance are slim. -India is just hanging in there. -Kiwis are no different. -Windies, BAN and Eng seems dead already. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FMVJ5aIp.jpg&t=665&c=_I9o6zsh5Sfljw)

ICC Test Championship 2021 is in its very early stages and we cant yet say who will grab top slots, as most teams have just played 1 or 2 series. In 2019, teams played 6, 5 and 4 series before we saw the final table. Right now NZ are looking good as they just destroyed SA in first test and they are also defending champions.

^^ Point taken but hardly a early stage because points distribution system is based on match percentage, not series and also if we look at fixtures then Pakistan and SL are playing (5) majority of their series in subcontinent, which is favorable condition to them so one would expect them to perform well in subcontinent in comparison to SENA countries.
Indian squad for 2 test series against Sri Lanka * Ashwin's selection will depend on his fitness, he's injured atm. * Surprisingly India went with tested combination of Jaddu-Ash and Axar-Washi are left out from the squad so it seems pitches are going to be pace friendly, makes sense as Lankan's spinners are no dummy. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FA16CqLQ.jpg&t=665&c=ThbgTIEY4HwzUA)
