    Afghans playing with plenty of luck, so far.

    Though us dropping a sitter that might have turned the tide is becoming regulation!

          Hilarious people are complaining about Chapman over Ravindra. Chapman being the only NZer who made the 2023 ICC T20 team of the year. He scored 576 at 44 last year. He was particularly good on slow pitches. Ravindra still averages under 18 in all T20 matches. It is a no brainer to pick Chapman ahead of Ravindra. I would have picked Seifert ahead of Ravindra in the squad. Jeez we are looking like a team that hasn't played in a while.

          @SouthernMann

          Chapman just never scores significant runs in big matches or against big teams. Small match player. Timid.

            His stats over the last couple of years are pretty good. He only played one game in the last world cup. Hasn't really had many opportunities in big games. A much better T20 player player than one day.

              Ravindra is the most overrated player in recent BC history. Not saying he won’t get good but the jury is still firmly out on him.

              In other news this commentary is terrible.

                Good to see that NZ has been working on their fielding in the off-season - NOT!!

                  Just terrible fielding, if we were Pakistan I'd be talking about fixing.

                  Afghanistan haven't capitalized on their luck though, they need to get a move on.

                    Pedestrian Stead still hasn't taken any action about our dire fielding.

                      55-0 after 10 is a very slow run rate

                              Just as I say that lol. We don't deserve to win this, we are well below par

                                In classic ACC fashion the commentators make one shit joke about a players name then repeat it lots just in case it was missed.

                                Ibrahim ‘Lincoln’…..oh my sides, I can’t take this wit any more.

                                  Not able to watch, what's the pitch like? This is a weird scorecard for a T20.

                                    Despite playing poorly, their total won't be huge. It'll be niggly and a weird one to chase.

                                      Yeah a strange mix of huge hits and complete mistimed shots.

                                      Our fielding has definitely helped them though.
