NZ v Pakistan 2022/23

@Damo said in NZ v Pakistan:
I don't understand why Southee and Henry are bowling. The new ball is 6 overs away. Let Sodhi and Ajaz have a go and then when new ball comes let Sodhi continue with the new ball and rotate Southee and Henry at the other end.
We may not take the new ball easier to score of it,
Harder to score if the old soft ball maybe that is their thinking. -

I think the new ball is essential. .

No doubt they are going to chase this down if we don’t get another wkt.
But with the older ball maybe the thinking is the wkt may come as they have to force shots more. -

The only thing on our side is that there probably aren't 15 overs left. More like 12-13 with the light.

We need to bring those fielders in tighter run a ball and they win easily with balls to spare.
We need a couple of maidens from somewhere great viewing though.
It maybe why we are bowling a quick from one end for so long hoping we don’t get through the overs and bad light takes the overs away as you say. -
Patel’s bowling is easy pickings. Get him off
-
-
Far out Latham.
-
Required rate is only around 4 rpo. I reckon we are toast.

Unless we can slow the overs down and hope for bad light.

Maybe Southee isn't much of a captain? The tactics in this test have been strange - from the very slow batting in the final session yesterday to the defensive and bizarre bowling in the final session and a half today.
Has been a bit strange , He has been talking a lot with Williamson.
And to be fair I questioned some of Kanes tactics at times. -

Can’t really blame Southee for that can we?

Singles will win for Pakistan and they are coming way too easily.

What a ball. Moved ever so slightly.

Yes Henry the door is open maybe big effort his 9th over on the trot.

Hasan likes to hit it, so there will be chances.
