    Better from Bracewell he should always play his shots that is his cricket DNA,not grafting.

    Blundel maybe done a groin he won’t be Keeping tomorrow if he has.
    And batting all he can do is stand and deliver.

    Two other keepers in the team.

    Latham or Conway of course.

    After a flurry of runs, Blundell skies one to a wide-ish mid-on.

    Mitchell in now with a very settled Bracewell. We are in an interesting spot here because we don’t have enough runs to feel comfortable but time is needed to bowl these guys out again.

    Commentators (Doull / Styris) absolutely slating NZ for their approach last hour. And I completely agree.

    What was the point in scoring 7 runs off 30 balls at this point??

    I.e ... why not do what they are doing now 30 mins ago? Only 7 runs less ...

    Declared. We have enough runs. If Pakistan can chase this down then good on them.

    I think our attitude was terrible for that 5 over period after drinks.

    Pakistan will need to break the record for chasing to get the win.

    3 overs to take a wicket and apply some pressure.

    That knock should give him confidence going forward. He really has to work for that

    Pretty much so perfect day then ....

    Declare at a point to give the opposition a sniff so they have a go. Then pick up two wickets (one NWM) in the 3 overs.

    That is better Bracewell be positive.

    Geez Chris you knew he was going to have his one decent score after you and Damo bagged him, the buggers do that just to give us the finger I thing. He will revert to usual in future no doubt, though doubt he will get another test this summer, haven't we only got Poms at home? More back to our usual line up of 3-4 seamers and maybe a spinner who can bat?
    I will leave it to the cricket men to advise me on expected line ups on home pitch.

    Bracewell might have booked his place in the team all summer with that knock. Sigh…..

    Waking up at 0-2 will do nicely though! I had to look twice and assumed for a sec they’d done Australian scoring !

    I gave constructive criticism.

    I don't see a place at home for a marginal spinning all rounder in the test team. If I did see room then it wouldn't be Bracewell.

    I would go with Sodhi and stick with him through thick and thin for a couple of seasons. To me he looks the best spinner by some distance, and we know he can hold a bat.
