    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.

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

          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.

              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.

                Chapman almost always looks amazing when he's in and playing classical shots. He's a very gifted cricketer.

                If he gets us out of this I won't ever doubt him again.

                  I remember him at the 2010 U19 CWV at Lincoln. He was playing for Hong Kong as a 16 year-old I think. Looked up to it then too.

                    Chapman is a bit like Ravindra in that he looks beautiful when set.

                    aesthetically more pleasing than the mighty KW if I’m being honest.

                      Chapman and extras saving us from being bowled out for 26!

                      Young, Ravindra, Mitchell, Latham, Phillips and Santner collectively contributing 5 runs off the bat.

                      We could have picked 6 random ferners and not done much worse! Anyone specialise on the nick for 4?!!

                          I was always good at a left handed cross bat slog with non existent foot movement. It got me many a six ( against shit bowling ideally )

                            I like the cut of Nathan Smiths gib as a cricketer. Appears to be a very handy player, gun fielder too.

                            He’s my Glenn Philips of 2025

                              Ravindra and Phillips get a pass because those were two incredible deliveries that are wickets 99 times our of 100, although I don't remember the last time Phillips looked like he was in any kind of form. The time off between now and the Pakistan tour might be good for him if he can hold his spot.

                              Mitchell played a lazy shot but also undone slightly by the movement. Latham extremely disappointed and his place in the squad in danger I think.

                              I've always thought Santner is overrated as a batter. Slightly unusually, I think he's a better bat in tests than in short ball stuff. He's well organised and fair sound defensively so is a tough wicket, but in short form he just really struggles to generate any kind of strike rate.

                                He’s a pretty damn competent batsman.

                                        Comforting to see normality back with the bowlers batting better than most of the batsmen.

                                          Chapman top scorer then Extras with a handy knock. Not much else from anyone else.

                                          All a bit disappointing really.

                                          Also disappointing is the summer and the lack of cricket this year. That is it for the home summer apparently.
