Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  E mea ana toku ngakau ko Aotearoa hei wikitoria i tēnei whiringa toa o te Ao, engari i roto i toku mahunga me haere ahau ki Ahitereiria, ahakoa ehara i te mea nui. Ko te mea nui mō te kaupapa katoa, ko te mea tika i te mutunga, e whai wāhi ana ngā taha pai e rua. I whakaaro ahau ko Inia te kapa kotahi e whai kupu ana engari he kaha rawa a Ahitereiria <unk> e tika ana kia noho mai ēnei taha e rua ki konei. Ko te take i riro ai i a rāua ko te mea i tākaro rāua i te momo hōu o te kirikiti kotahi rā: he pākihi kaha, he pākihi kaiwhiwhi, e whakahaeretia ana e ngā rangatira e rua e whai tonu ana kia puta ngā mea. Ko te reira i te putanga tino ake-ki-te wā o te 50-over kirikiti <unk> paku rerekē ki te mea i kite i etahi atu kapa e taea e tatou te whakahua. Kei te whakamanamana a Tim Southee ki te tūmanako kia tutaki ia ki a Ahitereiria i te whiringa toa o te Ao ā te Rātapu. Ka tūmanako a Aaron Finch kia whai pānga ia mō Ahitereiria i te whiringa toa o te Ao. E pai ana te katoa ki te hunga ngoikore, ā, e hiahia ana tētahi wāhanga o koutou kia toa te kapa Kiwi nā te mea he pai ki te whai i tētahi toa hou. Kua tākaro rātou i te kirikiti whakaongaonga, ā, ka kitea hoki e koe kei muri i a rātou tō rātou whenua katoa. Mai i te tirohanga o Ingarangi, kei te toro atu rātou i te tīmatanga o te raumati, ā, ko te pōwhiri atu ki a rātou hei toa o te ao, he tino tāpiri atu ki a rātou. Engari ko taku mahunga e whakahaere ana i te ngakau na te painga o te kaainga o Ahitereiria e takaro ana i te Melbourne Cricket Ground. Ki a au he take nui tēnei ki ngā Ipu o te Ao. Kua takaro nga Black Caps i nga tukinga katoa i te kaainga tae noa ki tenei wa, a ka mataku ahau ka uaua ki te haere ki tetahi waahi ka tino rereke ki te waahi e takaro ana ratou. Kei te whakanui a Ahitereiria i a rātou e eke ana ki te whiringa toa mā te wikitōria ki a Īnia i te whiringa toa. E mihi ana a David Warner ki te mano i muri i tana wikitoria i te whiringa toa ki a Inia. Kua huri te pōro ki Aotearoa, engari, ki te taka-i roto i te pitch, e kore e kua pera nui i te take i te MCG nei, i tua atu i tetahi atu mea, he nui nui atu i te wahi i reira i ratou kua tae noa ki tenei wa. I runga i ētahi o ngā take i roto i...
E whati ana toku mahunga me toku ngakau mo te toa o te Ipu o te Ao. Engari ko te mea nui kei a tātou ngā kapa pai e rua i te whiringa toa. E tika ana ki a rāua e rua mō tā rāua waitohu hōu o te kirikiti kotahi rā. E aroha ana tātou katoa ki te hunga ngoikore, ā, ko tētahi wāhanga o au e hiahia ana kia toa te kapa Kiwi.
