Fk sake Santner.
Used up some precious deliveries then gone. Hopeless.

Conway might be out for the test series if that injury is bad enough.
( which may be a blessing given his form )
@MN5 atleast Young has had plenty of mins under his belt.
-
@MN5 Phillips ain’t doing any better tbh.

1 from 9 is hopeless

Another gone. Chapman fails again. Why does he keep getting picked?

He's actually quite good, but the pressure created by Santner's promotion is what caused that wicket.
Batting order was all wrong, Phillips should have opened with Young at three. Santner should remain in the mid-lower order where he belongs.

Luckily, we've got some reinforcements to call on for the World Cup.
Conway, Ravindra, Williamson, Mitchell, Neesham, Henry, Southee and Tickner!

Seems like our selectors don't know how to select a T20 team, no other team in the world selects 4 number 11 batsmen. T20 is max four full time bowlers and at least two of them need to be able to at least do a bit of batting.

Nah I don't buy that at all. I don't think an extra half a batter makes any difference to this performance. Plus we're possibly chasing 200 plus by taking apart the 5th bowler.
The selection issue is we lacked the Kane/Mitchell role who can score 50 off 35-40 while the big hitters fire around them. That was partly due to the injuries keeping Conway, Rachin, Mitchell out of the side who are they guys who can play that role, as well as Young not having settled into that role yet.
I don't think any line up changes fix this performance anyway, we've gone too hard on a pitch where it's tough to score fast when we should have been looking to just score runs off every ball and try to pressure the bowlers into giving up opportunities to score hunting wickets.
