Black Caps vs Bangles
-
Southee is obviously not the sharpest tool int he box and can't throw straight let alone bowl it seems so no surprise he is poor but it is disappointing that Boult can not figure out the top of off stump corridor of doubt. He has either been on leg and middle or to far outside off. Does his run of injuries mean he doesn't practice anymore so lacks accuracy?.
Bowling coach must be weak or as simple as the two of them

It is Sunday, in the middle of January.... and fuck all have turned up to watch test match cricket at the Basin, the Basin needs to be shunted down the pecking order of test venues.
What a load of shit baron. Despite how they've done so far in this test the bangies are hardly a drawcard for big crowds and the nation's weather hasn't helped either. Your Bay area cricket grounds will never compete.

It is a test match, and there were probably couple of hundred in the ground.. on a Sunday... in mid January.
It is just pathetic.
But you are right about the weather, Wellington has shit weather.

Last I heard it does rain in other parts of the country as well but, with all due respect to bangladesh, get a decent team and decent atmosphere at the ground and I'd challenge anywhere else in NZ to match it.
This does of course rely on quite a few stars aligning but again, calling for the basin to be bypassed is utter madness

There were shitloads there last year for the Aussies, a sellout. It's Bangles and this weather - who is surprised? If anything, a good incentive to play one in Maunganui, Whangarei or even farking Raglan FFS

@MN5 said in Black Caps vs Bangles:
Well exactly. Who would have predicted the bangies would do as well as they have? Cricket anywhere in the world can be a lottery but moreso at the basin I'll ruefully admit.
Christ man, don't just change your mind like that. This is the Fern - home of US Politics, climate change and Mark Hammett threads that just won't die.

Pretty uncomfortable nights sleep for the Bangles I'd say. Effectively 4 down with the injury and another batsmen playing injured, if they get knocked over quickly in the morning then we'll back ourselves to get 200 - 250 in a couple of sessions on what is a batsmens paradise. And shit if they managed to lose after their first innings efforts and Shakib's double that'd be pretty soul destroying stuff.

Probably have to be on a concrete wicket at Raglan.

Shakib goes for a duck as the Bangles get their panic on.

"There have been some records for Bangladesh in this match, but here's one they might not want to think about. If they lose this match, it will be the highest first innings total to lead to a loss. This would break a record going back to 1894, where Australia made a first innings total of 586 against England at the SCG, but lost by 10 runs."
Comon lads!

Mominul goes now! Bangles collapsing in a heap.

It's the ole, if you can't beat em, Kill em!!!

Bloody hell taken away in an ambulance. Bangles 120/5 is actually 120/7 with the rising body count

Chasing 250 of 60 could be an interesting effort on a 5th day (ish) pitch.
