As a former HIBS lad it’s awesome to see two of them in the Black Caps side tonight.
The start of long careers for NZ I hope. I don’t think this pitch suits Ben Sears though.
He might not even get a bowl.

Just took a good catch though.

Lol why aren’t our fielders on the boundary? Some seriously sloppy cricket in this game. Could have saved a tone of runs.

Being only 5 wickets down is a bit disappointing, suggests the batters were a bit too cautious. Could have a least sent Bracewell up the order to try a fluke a few boundaries.
I know this is essentially our A team but the selections are all wrong. Blundell shouldn't be opening and we shouldn't be playing three seamers (not much choice but could at have picked Kuggeleijn who can hold a bat).

@labcat Based on earlier posts about 100 being a good score in Bangladesh, I don't know that we can really conclude that the selections were all wrong or anything else about the game plan. Maybe Bangladesh are just hard at home, and we don't have our best team available, so we lost.
