Black Caps vs Bangles
-
so is it raining or has cricinfo shit the bed?
-
@mariner4life the former but I had to go to the herald to find out
-
I think Cricinfo is delayed for some reason. Rights maybe? The app may be up to date
Edit: nope, seems to have shat itself online ... not just delaye (although there are series that are have delayed coverage online)

Pretty sure the idiot who's running the commentary just forgot to post his updates about the rain delay.
How do I know he's an idiot? This:
"Waqas Admani: "Why do NZ'a reviews say 0 next to them?" --- Because they have used up their reviews"They've fixed it and deleted that comment now, haha.

Sounds like a decent breeze in Wellington, they've had to take some of the camera's down. Must be nearly impossible to bowl in - we'd be better off with no more play today and come back tomorrow to start again. My memories of bowling into a Southerly at Ian Galloway park are not overly favorable.

Opening for India A today - Sheldon Jackson
That has to be the least Indian Indian ever to play. It makes Graham Labroy sound liuke Muttiahaiah Muralithian

That's Gra-ee-mee to you.
(And Labrooy in actual fact ... 2 o's ... although we know you're surname-spelling-fluid ...

Jesus @MN5 for cannon fodder they're doing alright.
I know Wagner is our highest ranked test bowler, but has Macca been giving him lessons?

Surprisingly so. Still waiting a good old fashioned collapse though.

At home vs the Bangles? To paraphrase Moff Tarkin I think you overestimate their chances....

@Gunner benign pitch, slow bowlers, no decent spinner. If it doesn't swing about, our attack becomes very pedestrian very quickly.

A lot of their batsmen have decent records.Their bowling attack is pretty weak though.
Yeah, they don't bat deep but they've got some handy players in their top 6 with good records. I'm not watching but the pitch appears pretty benign, similar to our test there vs Aus last year. Pretty disappointing as the Basin has historically served up some pretty quick pitches with a bit in it for the swing bowlers.

wait on a sec, the two blokes currently carving us up have away averages of 38 and 34. If they were NZ players we would be questioning their place in the side, but here they are in a 185 unbeaten partnership scoring at basically 4 an over.
Iqbal seems to be the only one who averages more than 40 away.
