NZ v SA Test Series

[Hooroo]

Yay! Luckily this is being played in Dunedin today!

I'm fizzing for test cricket after watching India v Australia.

Weather forecast looks good for today and pretty good for the whole test although we may have rain one final day.

22 won tosses in a row in NZ have bowled! Expect that to extend to 23 today

What's the word on that last bowling option - CDGH or Neesh?

I like Neesh's batting and it would be having him at 7 or 8. But he's not bowling a great deal recently. CDGH can be up and down but he is an attacking bowler. He will also provide a decent rest to our frontliners.

@ACT-Crusader

Looks as though it will be Neesh

[Hooroo]

Hmmm Southee may have been dropped!!

[Hooroo]

What do I know! SA won and are having a bat

[JK]

Yep southee not in the XI !!!

[Bovidae]

The streak is over! The team winning the toss (SA) will bat. Kane wanted to bat first as well.

[MN5]

Southee dropped for Patel ?!?!?!?!

Fuck off Black Caps, just FUCK OFF.

If the tactic was to play two spinners then Southee is the obvious one that misses out given Wagner and Boult have been significantly better in the past few years. Fair call IMO, I'm really glad they kept Wagner.

Agree. To be fair on @MN5 though, he doesn't get the intricacies of test cricket.....

Well at least we'll lose quicker cos Patel gets through overs more rapidly than Southee

[Hooroo]

@MN5

Shhhhhhhhhhhhh now.

[Bovidae]

Patel already bowling and looking dangerous in his first over.

[Gunner]

I'm much happier with Neesham in the side than CDG.
But not so with Patel over Southee.

Expecting a dust bowl are they?

[Hooroo]

VAGNAR!!!!

So stoked to see the back of Amla!

[Virgil]

Neil!
Very happy they dropped Southee, not sure why @MN5 isnt surprised by this move.

[Hooroo]

@Virgil and isn't Patel bowling poorly! 7 Overs at 0.42 runs per over!

Creating that little thing in test cricket

PRESSURE!

[Hooroo]

VAGNAR!!!!!

Now with Duminy in same over

[mariner4life]

chew for twenty chew!!

And Wagner got a wicket with a ball pitched in the batsman's half, well I never...

wait, it's 3! jesus h christ.

[Virgil]

Clearly should have picked Southee and dropped a Wagner..
