West Indies tour of NZ

Gunner

And seriously fucking try someone else, please. These poor buggers have been bowled into the ground today.

Nothing to lose, absolutely nothing.

booboo

Great delivery. Into the tail now.

Tail wagging ...

Don't think the Windies are going to go for the win, but they're looking a good bet for the highest furth innings score in a five day test.

Just need 17 more to go past Nathan Astle's test.

Also in Christchurch!

Bovidae

Duffy should be bowling full and straight. If he gets hit down the ground, so be it, but if the batsmen misses...

Waaaay too many balls today have just been ducked under or let go down leg side.

Plan hasn’t worked, but what is most disappointing is the lack of flexibility or insight to change it up.

This is a defiant effort by the West Indies. If they can salvage the draw it would be heroic.

Switch Bracewell to the other end.

Greaves will be looking for 200 - Duffy can throw a few up wide of off with some slips in. See if you can tempt him into an error driving.

Gunner

Another factor in Duffy and Foulkes’ heavy workload, they only get 3 days off before the next test on Wednesday.

Will be a lot of time spent in ice baths and on the massage table.

@Gunner Tickner, Jamieson, Mitch Jr and Ajaz into the team?

Steven Harris

How many overs to go ?

Chris B.

Setting themselves up to launch ... surely

booboo

An hour and a half stuck on 53?

Steven Harris

@Chris-B Geez regardless how this plays out its been a sensational performance from the Windies

canefan

The pitch is a road. Our bowlers look as threatening as teddy bears

Steven Harris

2 runs in that over ,hint of a launch ?

Cyclops

Give Kane a bowl!

canefan

At least Ravindra is trying to pitch it up. Bracewell looked totally benign

Kane hasn't been willing to bowl for years

Yeah - just on the basis of their application. To bat nearly two sessions and not get out is an awesome effort.

We have done (almost) enough to win though - the drop of Roach was very poor and two umpiring errors.
