West Indies tour of NZ

[Cyclops]

Windies are flying now, going to need a decent effort to chase this one down.

Tickner is starring for the West Indies with the ball and in the field.

Some beach cricket fielding there.

Hope will smash his way to a ton this over. Has really lifted his scoring rate.

He has been bloody good fun to watch. Finding some great gaps in the field.

[SouthernMann]

And there is his 100. One of the best ODI innings I have seen in a long time

It really was. Helped by some pies but still a great effort.

Big chase needed here

What's that thing on the umpire's arm?

I think it’s a shield. Seriously.

Early days but these two are scoring too slowly

[Cyclops]

I'm enjoying Wags as a commentator.

We've set a nice platform, hope we start to turn up the pace now. Conway looks to be going after everything but can't get hold of anything.

[Bones]

That's a pretty shithouse review.

[booboo]

So 10 rrpo in my helpful recalculation of runs per ball ..

[booboo]

Bugger. Conway out

[booboo]

82 off 51.

4 down.

Latham and now Bracewell at the wicket.

[booboo]

We'll take the top edge 4.

9.6 rrpo

Losing the set batsman now is pretty significant. 9-10 an over not too hard if Conway is there - a lot more tricky with new batsmen - and the quality starts to decline after Santner.

Winnable, but advantage Windies right now.

[booboo]

Shit over. 3 therefrom

[Cyclops]

Stage is set for Bracewell to be the hero in a chase again.

Jinxed nicely there

[canefan]

Only hope is it pitched on leg

[canefan]

Bracewell underwhelms me

[Cyclops]

Yeah I think he gets too much credit for a couple of freak innings. Nowhere near good enough to be picked as an occasional bowler.
