Looks high!

my first thought too

Change of bowler brings some luck, Lachy gets one, gurbaz still at crease though

Chris B.

Lots of mis-hits in the air but not going to hand. Runout chances missed.

But, Ferg does the job!

Yeah - gotta get Gurbaz quickly!

MN5

Bit surprised they went for Neesham over Bracewell.

‘Experience’…….

Hopefully the pie shop is closed today and he isn’t required to bowl

Chris B.

Gurbaz doesn't mind showing you his stumps!

bayimports

Great delivery…Gurbaz goooone

Chris B.

Got 'eem!

Bovidae

That should be Neesham's only over. Let's not tempt fate.

Chris B.

@Bovidae Nearly snuck a decent second - the wide and the misfield made it more expensive than desired.

Chris B.

Need some wickets - run rate currently controlled, but that will change quickly if we can't make inroads.

Bovidae

@Chris-B But still one over too many!

Chris B.

Neesh gets smoked in his third - 18 off it.

Chris B.

@Bovidae 45/0 off the fifth bowler - bowling the easy overs.

Chris B.

Nice - Duffy finally gets Atal.

Badly needed.

Need a couple more - including Gulbadin!

Chris B.

Good from Satnav!

MN5

Neesh gets smoked in his third - 18 off it.

This surprises no one.

Neesh should be filed under "break glass and let him bowl only when everyone else has fallen over"

Chris B.

Annoyingly one of Duffy or Ferg will only bowl three overs.

The Rachin ploy sort of worked. Henry then gets another - late but helpful!

MN5

Kept them well under 200, that's solid.

Gettable total providing they handle the spin and someone goes big.

Chris B.

Worries me that Santner was our most economical and the Afghans are spin heavy.

Pitch didn't appear to have too many demons.

Looked like a nicely paced innings - our inability to pick up regular wickets obviously allowed them to score mor freely than desired.
