    Henry ruled out which is a big loss.

    Nathan Smith comes into the side. Bonus is that he’s a slightly better batter than Henry.

    Debatable. Henry can belt a few sixes and at this stage in their careers is a MILES better bowler.

    Huge loss, Smith needs to step up ! Our attack looks far more popgun with him not there.

    Let’s just get runs on the board first. 4/0 off the first over.

          BCs 47/0 off 6.3 overs. Ravindra dropped by Shami on 29.

          Young 11 off 18
          Ravindra 29 off 21

                Should be good for spin, hopefully isn’t as two paced as when we first played on it

                    That is what referrals are for, that was a poor decision from the umpire.

                        All 3 of the seamers have to step up. O'Rorke has been very good at times, he had a good tour in India didn't he? One or two of the three of Smith, Kylo and O'Rorke have to rock it, and the third has to at least be solid

                        O'Rourke reminds me of early career Henry, his stock delivery is very good and when the ball is new or there's assistance, he's dangerous, but doesn't seem to quite have the variations that you really need in short form cricket. Hopefully they'll come with time.

                          Jeez Ravindra is playing with fire atm. Last four balls have nearly cost him his wicket each time.

                            Feels like Rachin could get out at any moment… playing with fire.

                            On the other hand, he could get us well ahead of the game if he stays in for another 10 overs

                                  Glad he didn’t review, that was plum

                                        Varun is an incredible bowler. So good to watch.

                                        Good opening for NZ

                                          Jeez Ravindra is playing with fire atm. Last four balls have nearly cost him his wicket each time.

                                          Losing some of his mental control needs to pick more selective balls

                                          Young gone. Damnit.

                                          Maybe a good thing that Kane comes in now to have a word with Ravindra.

                                          You get half a like
