Wait until we have them 8 down. 13-3 can easily turn into 250-5. And wait until we bat....

What the fuck ? I saw the score and thought we were batting!!!

With the Craps, I think it's best just to enjoy the moment and not look too far ahead

Blundell doesn't seem to be the tidiest keeper around.

Yep, lesser with both bat and gloves lately

[No Quarter]

We can't really afford drops like that really, we're up against it enough already.

We were lucky with BJ in that he worked really hard on his keeping, and ended up becoming world class behind the stumps. He was basically error free by the end of his career. Blundell has never been as good behind the stumps but his batting has been valuable for us.

[No Quarter]

Feels strange to see the ball carrying through to the keeper at head height in India. The weather seems to have helped us quite a bit.

I wanna boof O’Rourke and Henry.

Even Southee is worth a reach around

I know we’re going to get pants…yes pun intended so I’m just going to enjoy this while it’s something positive

[Donsteppa]

Imagine this scorecard if our keeper could take a regulation chance.

Just saw the score: are they playing in a stadium on a pitch, or in someone's backyard?

Pitch and cloud cover look a little more like England in May, than a traditional pitch in India...
