CWC - Black Caps v Pakistan

[Chris B.]

A T20 in which we are 40/1 after 3 overs?

[Donsteppa]

Kane has suddenly decided to run between the wickets like a cat on a hot tin roof. Curious.

[bayimports]

Kane determined not to get to 100

[bayimports]

Well done Rachin! Magnificent innings. First player to score 3 centuries on World Cup debut

[bayimports]

Only about 40 short of Quentin’s run record, but that won’t happen

[Chris B.]

He'll be looking forward to the next IPL auction.

And he follows that up

[Donsteppa]

A slightly un-Kane like innings - the relatively high strike rate, and a loss of composure over the last ten minutes.

[Chris B.]

Shit - just got a bit of slice on that!

95 in quick time. Didn't come in and get bogged down.

Right, you others - don't fuck this up!!!

[Donsteppa]

In this match situation, Tom Latham should not be padding up until about #8 or #9.

We laugh at Pakistani bookmaker jokes but that last 15 minutes was right up there

[Damo]

Bugger for Kane.

I would have sent Phillips out. Give him a chance to get into some form. Mitchell is pretty quick scoring though.

[bayimports]

Mitchell is the right move for sure, but I agree with Don, Latham should be slipping

Yeah, Mitchell won't be wasting any time but definitely agree with bringing in Phillips and then Chapman before Latham.

[LABCAT]

Williamson out in the 90's seven times apparently.

[bayimports]

Ouch but great innings, Rachin out for 108

[bayimports]

Good move Chapman in

[bayimports]

Masterful strike Moonhead Jnr

[LABCAT]

Ravindra and Williamson laid the perfect foundation, lets hope the middle order can make it can make it count. Anything less than 370-380 would be failure and we should be aiming for over 400.

[Chris B.]

Lots of time left here - don't mind a bit of consolidation right now.
