Black Caps v Pakistan T20’s

[Duluth]

2nd match, Pakistan choose to bowl first

Santner in and Henry out

Finn Allen, Devon Conway (wk), Kane Williamson (c), Daryl Mitchell, Glenn Phillips, Mark Chapman, Mitchell Santner, Adam Milne, Tim Southee, Ish Sodhi, Ben Sears

[MN5]

Better balanced team. Black Caps will canter home by over a hundred runs.

[Bones]

Did anyone even appeal for a catch there? Why are the umpires bothered if the players aren't? That was bizarre.

Very bizarre. No appeal that I could see.

[nzzp]

things I love:
Aaron Smith's pass
The sound of the ball of Kane's bat

[MN5]

Shit fielding from Babar Azam and another four.

Massive score coming up

[canefan]

Kane walks off, retired hurt

[Damo]

Pakistan seems sloppy today.

Kanen off not sure why.

We may need 200+ on this ground and pitch.

[Damo]

We are in danger of not quite following up on this good start.

Another good opportunity for Chapman though. Hope he takes it like he did the other night.

[Gunner]

These two need to find some timing and quick, otherwise it looks like we’ll limp to 20 overs with a below par score.

Let’s go!!!

[Gunner]

Not Chapmans day, let’s hope it’s Satnavs…

Chapman 4 from 9, shit that’s bad.

[Damo]

I think we could be in trouble here. 185 odd is not enough after this start and the ground.

[Gunner]

Did they change the pitch after 10 over?

Our middle order have really struggled.

As I type Santner takes 10 from the next two deliveries

[antipodean]

That over changes things!

[Gunner]

The second half of this innings is nothing short of a disaster.

Just terrible.

Sodhi got a golden duck last innings now this - makes no sense him batting above Southee

Same as Milne really, he wasted a lot of balls last game when he couldn’t get bat on ball.

Santner, Sodhi, Southee…..they’re obviously batting in alphabetical order

[KiwiMurph]

@MN5 Sears is dudded

Probably because he can't catch.
