Some really decent players there, long gone are the days of loads of bits and pieces players.
-
Nice start Duffy.
Already has shown more than Bennett.
-
Duffy must think this international cricket gig is easy.
-
Excellent start Duffy, really helped along by some suicidal Pakistani batting.
Has Tickner has got quicker, or I have just not ever noticed how quick he can get it through? He was in the mid 140s the last couple balls in that over.
-
And Sodhi picks up the 5th. Pakistan are determined to self destruct.
Cut it out, I’m strictly talking about the cricket!!!
-
Holy shit
-
Unlucky!
-
Best non catch I have seen
-
Duffy deserved that, magnificent effort. Fingernail brush.
-
Good 4 overs from Santner.
-
Pakistans captain playing a decent knock.
He also almost has a really funny name.
-
Great catch Sodhi!
That could be the difference between chasing 140 or 160
-
What the fuck is a Duffy? Where did he come from?
And which awkward TV teenager character does he most resemble? -

Duffy Duck?

I was wondering if it was a non-teenager, but rather something like early Chuck, or early Jim(?) from seppo-Office... but nah, it's somebody else... bugging the shit out of me.
-
Pakistan bat deep don't they. Great fightback.
-
@KiwiMurph personally, I'm stoked to see our bowlers hitting 140's. It's ridiculous, but I'll take it
-
@nzzp yeah no pie chuckers out there like Bennett is pleasing.
-
@KiwiMurph mmm, pie
-
Jeez Guppy, my heart was in my mouth there. Don’t do that to me, take the catch first time!
-
Kind of disappointed we let them off the hook really. Phillips putting down that catch for the 6th wicket would have changed the game.
-
@JC Makes for a better game though. Blowout T20s are rubbish.
-
@Kruse He reminds me of one of the kids from Home Improvement

Yea I’m a bit disappointed we let them off the hook to a certain degree, but pleased we have a decent run chase to watch.
-
Shame we let them off the hook with two dropped catches and some loose bowling at the end, but pretty good effort.
-
Gah Guptill.
-
-
Soft dismissal. Poor from Conway, great delivery.
-
Pakistan already taken more catches than WI did all tour.
-
Hafeez commentating and fielding at the same time - great stuff.
-
Phillips has some serious power
-
-
How come Chapman is so pessimistic?
He's had his helmet on for ages. -

Hell of a catch. Great stuff
99 times out of 100 you would expect that catch to be dropped from the team in green...
Brilliant catch.
-
Chapman's chance to shine! I hope he play's a match winning performance, his intro to international cricket (excluding Hong Kong) hasn't started so well.

batting really well... 16 off 9, using the pace of the ball nicely
-
Game on kids.

Neesh just dangles his bat out way outside off
