@Chris-B Should've calmed down!

..and there he goes.

New rule: Kane and Ross get any review anytime they fucking want.

Otherwise we don't win games!

[Chris B.]

@Siam Was Ross' one missing?

[Siam]

@Chris-B yeah, height

[Donsteppa]

Based on DRS referral choices, Williamson is unlikely to do a Chris Gaffaney when he retires...

[Chris B.]

@Siam Gah!

That over we just got 10 off was important. Calm Kane down.

We only really need to push it around to have four an over off 30 overs - as long as wickets are in hand.

Then 170 off 40 overs.

Need these two to take it deep.

[Gunner]

FFS Kane.

[Chris B.]

That was just rubbish, Kane.

Threw it away - probably the game as well!

You got a whiff of a BC’s implosion?

It’s still there for the taking, but It’ll take some sensible batting for the next 15 overs to get us there.

[Chris B.]

@Gunner It is a long way out to be four down, including most of our "solid" players.

Latham and Williamson were going along so nicely according to my schedule - we had a lot of batting to get us home in the last 10 overs if those two had just pushed it around and kept it on the deck through to 40 overs.

[Chris B.]

Shoulda reviewed that!!!!

[Donsteppa]

It's like they got Dhoni out at 18/4 and just expected another Hamilton to fall into their laps...

[Gunner]

Now Latham.

We really are fucked.

Need all our allrounders to chip in with 30 or 40 each... not likely.

[Chris B.]

Neesham did better than me - I thought it might have pitched outside leg!

On the plus side, you get to join the Kane Williamson club

[nzzp]

Well shit. Lon gway home from here with CdG gone

[kev]

@nzzp he missed that by miles. From the first ball against the spinners looked out of his depth. Plants front foot early and swings.

[Gunner]

Bring back Sri Lanka, I much prefer watching us be the bullies than watch us be bullied.

I think this has been the most enjoyable match though - the result has actually be in question for a fair bit of it. The last 4 have been pretty one sided

[Cyclops]

I think this game shows that we need a genuine third seamer and that neither de Grandhomme nor Neesham are up to that role. Neesham might be a fifth opinion, especially if there is a sixth (Kane or Munro the obvious candidates).
