West Indies tour of NZ

[Cyclops]

Tickner with 4 now, really making the most of this opportunity to claim his spot.

I also saw that our leading wicket takers in this team are Glenn Phillips and Kane Williamson. This reminds of the days when Vettori would have more centuries than the top 5 combined.

[MN5]

Rae gets a well deserved second. Greaves gone caught behind. Faint edge but they all count.

182-6.

[Gunner]

Hay with his first catch in test cricket.

Let’s hope that Windies tail is all wagged out after the first test.

[No Quarter]

Rae and Tickner have done a great job toiling away to keep wickets coming at regular intervals. We really need to keep them below 250 after stupidly bowling first.

[Gunner]

Isn’t cricket a funny game.

Roach was immovable for fucking hours the other day, gone for a second ball duck today.

Looks like we’re a good chance of having a bat tonight

Cricket is a fluffybunny of a game. With his record and going by how he went with the bat last innings you could pretty much bet the house on Roach getting fuck all this dig.

The others don't inspire much batting confidence but I did think that last test so we'll see.

Makes our inability to roll them for the win even more frustrating

[SouthernMann]

Tickner goooone. Just can't catch a break with our bowlers at the moment

[Gunner]

Fark sakes, the poor bastard.

He’s done bloody well since being recalled too, such a shame for him!

Flat cap and dinner jacket in the crowd.... you there @MN5 ?

Is he strumming a guitar trying to look cool?

[Gunner]

Golden arm Phillips sneaks one through Imlach and gets himself 1 in the wicket column.

Bit hot for the dinner jacket in this sweltering heat. I’d also be wearing a straw hat instead of the cheese cutter for optimal neck protection on my pasty Scottish skin.

Sounds like you saw Craig McMillan

[Gunner]

Haha that’s a strange run out. Good work by Clarke.

One to get.

[MN5]

Fucken hell. Not another pace bowling injury.

Wags, take the dinner jacket off and get down there now.

[Gunner]

Shields is doing his best Coldplay impersonation out there with the bat.

Edit: next ball, goooorne

Coldplay could probably jump on the East by west to throw down some overs when we need him.

Imagine him and Rae bowling in tandem, you wouldn’t be able to tell them apart. Lucky jerseys have numbers on them these days.

Batsmen have to do the bowlers a solid and stay out there for a while now
