NZ v Pakistan 2022/23

ACT Crusader

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.

Can’t really blame Southee for that can we?

Damo

Take the new ball you fools. We are just meandering to a loss.

ACT Crusader

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

ACT Crusader

What a ball. Moved ever so slightly.

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

ACT Crusader

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

Damo

Now take the new ball surely to goodness.

ACT Crusader

Patel with a good chase and dive to save a run.

I see the cricinfo commentators are still talking like NZ can win.

Surely that option is gone now? An extra 20 runs yesterday would have been gold dust. Timmy forgot that our bowling attack is the wrong side of average these days.

MajorRage

42 runs off 10 overs with 3 wickets in hand.

In theory, that should be pretty easy as long as the set batsman can keep the strike.

Damo

@MajorRage I think we can win but we need to be a bit brave. Take the new ball and let Sodhi bowl with it. Southee in tandem.

ACT Crusader

Love it from Southee.

We might get a bit of luck here

Damo

maybe sliding down?

ACT Crusader

Great decision

ACT Crusader

A Southee special with the new ball. Skidding on a moved slightly away from off.

Damo

That's dead out. Amazing what the new ball can do.

All of a sudden I am hoping the light remains good.

Chris

A twist in the tale keep Sarfraz of strike and things may happen.

Light looks fine.

Chris

Give him the single.

Not a fucking 4 of an edge
