Black Caps vs Sri Lanka

MN5

Lucky we bat deep, cos today we might need to

MN5

Bloody excellent catch and Mitchell is on his way.

20/3.

MN5

Latham in.

I’ve always found it an interesting quirk that Astle, Ryder and Guptil opened in short forms and batted middle order in tests whereas Latham does the opposite.

Without stating the obvious but doing exactly that someone needs a big score here.

…..and it wasn’t Latham.

Another brilliant catch and he’s gone for a duck.

Fair to say Hay would have got a better return than Latham's 1 run across 2 ODIs.....

ACT Crusader

And out.

We are being taught a lesson here on the consequences of not using your feet.

MN5

They need just over a run a ball too.

….and as I type this Phillips continues not contributing anything much to the team.

ACT Crusader

Some very good catching from the Sri Lankans too.

They’re a different team than the last couple of matches. Absolutely fired up and everything is going their way.

We have batting to come but not enough for that kind of total.

Bovidae

Eden Park will save on power as they won't need to turn the lights on!

Two of the most maligned NZ cricketers needing to manage the rebuild. I've slapped a cheeky $50 on Braces to top score.

Even maligned cricketers can turn things around…..

See Santner, Mitchell

SouthernMann

There we go. Poor spelling from me.

MN5

Liyanage into the attack.

His average just came up, 190, fair to say the BCs should have a crack

Average probably just halved.

Lowest ever ODI total combined with a series win would be so blackcaps.

There’s some beer money gone

MN5

Chapman looking comfortable in an ocean of carnage according to Scott Stevenson.

Would be good if he could get a massive score

Indeed. That's punting though. Stoked to see Chapman look so good.

Gunner

Mitchell, Latham and Bracewell can hang their heads in shame, poor poor shot selection when you’re already under the pump.

66/6 we are fucked.
66/3 not great either, but not terminal.
