Black Caps - Bangladesh tour

[Rapido]

Man, I know I'm pessimistic, but can't see us getting there. Is unplayable. Got to hope it's easier when the ball gets a bit older.

Ajax Patel is like the reverse Henry Nicholls. Awesome record overseas but terrible record at home (to be fair he has only played three games in NZ).

If he could bat well enough to bat at seven, he probably would have played a bucketload of games.

This. We don't know how effective he could be because he barely gets a chance at home

Well. There is this thing called Plunket Shield.

I'll confidently state he'd have done less well than the 4 seamers who played ahead of him, on some spinners graveyard pitches. But better (with the ball) than the spin bowling all-rounders who rounded out those attacks.

@Rapido pace shouldn't decide this test. Or should be all down to how we pay the spinners.

Small total though, a few good connections and it looks on

[Gunner]

Tough total on this pitch, but all we need is one counter attacking innings (Al la Phillips), and a few to hang around in support.

Sounds simple, right?

[booboo]

Given up watching. Youtube feed is terrible, and ads are just absolutely random.

[nzzp]

@booboo NZ? Three now have it

Otherwise try VIP box and use an ad blocker

137 to win (I think)

This should be a pretty comfortable walk in the park.

Conway to get an unbeaten half century. Easy.

Fuck

[Gunner]

Kane’s been done there.

Pretty brave (or stupid) to push so far out of your crease on this pitch.

[Gunner]

Latham nearly edges one to bat pad.

We need someone to have a crack, we won’t last long just trying to survive.

[MN5]

With KW gone and walking wicket Nicholls at the crease it’s advantage Bangladesh at the moment.

[Gunner]

@MN5 you’ve just ensured Nichols scores a fighting match winning 50 and ensures he keeps his place for our next series.

Or he performs as we expect and we get to gripe.

It’s basically win/win.

[Damo]

Not going to be a career saver from Nicholls today.

[bayimports]

Fuckin who didn’t have their feet off the floor for Nelson variant

[Gunner]

I reiterate what I said before, we need someone to have a crack, better to do it now before we’re 6 down and fighting to save the test.

[bayimports]

@Gunner I agree one person hold an end and someone smash, not easy pitch to accumulate singles on

[KiwiMurph]

Nicholls burns a review along with getting out. Well done champ

[bayimports]

98 to go …or 7 wickets

[Gunner]

A couple of nice sweeps from Latham to find the boundary. A few more of those will be nice.
