Thank the lord Jamieson won't play in the remainder of the T20 series. He should never have been picked to play International T20 matches in the first place. He is a Test Match & ODI bowler.
Are you talking about the player who has figure of 3/8 off 4 overs in his previous game.
Sure he had a shitter at Eden Park every bowler did, with short boundaries that create 6 and 4s from miss hits, hard on all bowlers at that ground.
I am not writing off Jamieson in 20/20s he moves the ball both ways has height so generates awkward bounce and can hit a decent length@Chris said in Black Caps v Pakistan:

Jamieson, O’Rourke and Henry ( can’t believe I’m saying this but his improvement has been immense ) at their best are as good as any pace trio in the game

Yep totally agree it is an exciting trio if they stay fit they could win us a lot of games,
They have everything as a combo
Pace, bounce move the ball both ways.
Fingers crossed they all get on the park together consistently. -

Nah don’t agree he learns a lot playing 20/20
good way to build up just 4 overs at a time,
Builds a strength base for that back. -
220/6 off our 20. Weird innings, got totally bogged down through the 10-16 over mark. Not sure if that's good bowling, or Allen and Seifert playing well. Feels like we're either about 30 ahead of par or 30 behind.

Good win in the end, so I guess we were well ahead of par although I think some of that was scoreboard pressure.

Silly to give MOTM to Allen. It's a batsmen's game, multiple of our batsmen scored similar runs, the difference between the two sides is 4/20 from 4 overs. Those figures will win you most T20s and those early wickets ended Pakistan's chase before it started. Allen said in the interview he didn't deserve it.
That said, there are not many players as exciting as Allen to watch when he gets going like that.

Ball doing heaps but we haven't been accurate enough to capitalise

Not unexpectedly I can report it has been raining rather heavily in Napier for about the last half hour. Checks cricket schedule, ah yes Pakis v Black Caps scheduled for McLean Park on Saturday so that explains the rain.

An ODI will be more fun to watch than T20.
Not sure the results will be any different though

Disappointing to have to swap out watching Tim Seifert and Finn Allen for Nick Kelly and Will Young though. The T20 openers have been a real highlights package.

I had to google who that is.
Yeah the formats are getting more and more spread apart.
Some guys can play all three very well but fitting them all in can be the problem.
-
NZ will be batting first.
Of interest to me is two guys I've never heard of, Nick Kelly who I mentioned above and Muhammad Abbas.
Also Henry Nicholls has sneakily slotted in at three after some time in the wilderness.
I'm picking a couple of comfortable hidings ( despite what happened in Auckland ), I think this Pakistan team just want to go home.
-
Muhammad Abbas has had a little bit of 'next big thing' hype about him. He seems handy from the little bit of domestic T20 I've seen him play but probably a little too soon, although as you say, an ODI team against a pretty demoralised Pakistan team might be a good way to give him a little bit of international experience while the guys in front of him are off playing franchise cricket.
