Black Caps v Pakistan
-
Pakistan review a caught behind decision, and it remains not out.
They've used both their reviews now.CdG scoring in multiples of 4 at the moment. Has given a bit of momentum to our innings sine those two early wickets.
He's still shit though, he'll be out soon for sure.

@mimic is this what you mean? Quote from Cricinfo
46.6
Sohail Khan to de Grandhomme, no run, ah that wasn't very wise, de Grandhomme came down the pitch a bit too early and the bowler shortened his length and seamed the ball away from the right-hander, beating the outside edge of his attempted drive
-
Mimic called it, CdG with a very BMac like innings.
An almost run a ball 30 odd, scored mostly in boundaries, out caught off a top edge at long leg.
Was good while it lasted.
Lets see what Astle can do.

Debut boys having a pretty good day
follow the fucking script!!!!
See it was all fine, debut 100 coming up around lunchtime tomorrow.
That blur you see out the window is the mob moving into place in case Raval is out before 100.

What did I tell ya...
52.6 Sohail Khan to Southee, FOUR, and again! No top edge this time though. Southee swivels and pulls the short of a length ball wide of the fielder at fine leg. Sohail's ninth consecutive over this morning is an expensive one
.
52.5 Sohail Khan to Southee, FOUR, another short ball, and another pull shot, this time the ball flies over the keeper off the top edge for four more ... Southee isn't holding back here and New Zealand's lead is growing
.
52.2 Sohail Khan to Southee, FOUR, short of a length this time and Southee winds up and smashes it over midwicket, it nearly carries all the way. He had cleared his front foot before pulling that
.
52.1Sohail Khan to Southee, FOUR, Southee stays beside the line of the ball again, not getting behind it, and steers it wide of the slip cordon for a boundaryClassic Southee

Bowl a team out for 133 and not putting up at least a 100 run lead borders on criminal negligence unless the pitch is an absolute minefield (which this one isn't).
Unfortunately, the backbone of our batting - Latham, Williamson, Taylor - made 16 between them.
A 40 run first innings lead is not enough. I'd back Pakistan to be better in their second innings - we will certainly need Kane and Tom to be.

Well the players have fucked this up, so it's down to us. We've got some pretty heavy jinxing to do today.
Unfortunately it's not a work day. Advantage Pakistan

I've written it off now.
Pakis will rack up 450 run lead and we'll fizzle for 90.

Surely DeGrandhomme's 6-for was beginners luck and he can't take six again. Anyone got anything to add on Southee?

Hmmm... whenever i turn on the telly we have either just git a wicket or we get one within two deliveries. Well it's happened last three times.
This time booboo strikes first ball. Boulter grabs Misbah on the boundary off Timmah.
Then Boulter gets another.
Like this game... so far ...
