Further to this. Great to see an ODI at the basin. Better a full basin than a 25% ( even this might be generous ) full Cake tin.

Looks like a 25%full basin. ..

the rest are somewhere over the Cook Straight and heading south

[Gunner]

@booboo yes XI is what I meant....

Solid start from these two.

[booboo]

I suspect it's been mentioned previously but the Pakis do seem to have a disproportionately high number of left arm seamers over the years.

All the way back as far as I can remember to Safraz Nawaz and Azeem Hafeez (or Hafeez Ahmoff as Billy Birmingham dubbed him).

[Gunner]

Hows the deck?

What sort of score are the comms predicting?

Very early days, but just looking at he scoreboard alone so far, I'd guess 320 might be on?

Munro seeming to want to push in that direction 4 4 6 ...

[Gunner]

Was just about to say Munro was on 30 with a strike rate of 130 and only hit 3x boundaries...

Nek minnit boom 4, boom 4, boom 6.

44 off 27.

Took a wee diversion to Statsguru.

A list of all ODI left arm pace bowlers shows:

• Pakiatan 20 of 102 total pace bowlers (19.6%)
• World 123 of 1204 total (10.2%)

So basically double.

[No Quarter]

That was an awesome innings from Munro. Got the run rate going against a decent attack, which takes pressure off Guppy and Kane.

[Cyclops]

So how does it work with the bails off for run outs and bowled? Is any contact enough or is it up to the umpire to make a call?

[booboo]

@cyclops beat me to it. Was wondering the same thing.

[ShadowTrooper]

Nice shots from Guppy

[No Quarter]

Guppy and Kane reaping the benefits of Munro's innings. 149/1 after 26 with these two now finding their timing.

[ShadowTrooper]

Shitter. Out on 48.

[No Quarter]

That's an incredibly soft dismissal. Gah.

[ShadowTrooper]

Yep this Pakistan side will sort out the wheat from the chaff, soft dismissal Latham.

And again.
I’m not sold on Nicholls yet, time to impress me fulla!!!

[Gunner]

Need to go at 8’s from here to get to 320.
I think we need all of that.

If Kane bats late into this innings we’ll get there.

Right now we should be aiming for 350.

There seems to be no interest in going for a score like that as of yet...

Time to put the hammer down surely?
