Black Caps v Pakistan

@Duluth said in Black Caps v Pakistan:
I feel the same about ODIs and T20s. ODIs have become just as formulaic and the results feel like they lack importance
I’d respectfully disagree with that. If anything T20s have made me appreciate ODIs considerably more as there is still room for more ebbs and flows in games.
But yeah, probably still a few forgettable series, not as much as T20 though !
The 92 World Cup was utterly captivating. The 2015 World Cup loads of fun too. The 2029 one just heartbreaking.
20/20 has never provide anything close to that

Yeah I can see into the future. They'll really need to keep an eye on Ben Stokes and I hope that stupid boundary law gets tidied up.

Chapman loves Pakistan. Shame he can't play like this against everyone else. He looks so good when he's batting well too.

Thank the lord Jamieson won't play in the remainder of the T20 series. He should never have been picked to play International T20 matches in the first place. He is a Test Match & ODI bowler.

Are you talking about the player who has figure of 3/8 off 4 overs in his previous game.
Sure he had a shitter at Eden Park every bowler did, with short boundaries that create 6 and 4s from miss hits, hard on all bowlers at that ground.
I am not writing off Jamieson in 20/20s he moves the ball both ways has height so generates awkward bounce and can hit a decent length -

Jamieson, O’Rourke and Henry ( can’t believe I’m saying this but his improvement has been immense ) at their best are as good as any pace trio in the game

Yep totally agree it is an exciting trio if they stay fit they could win us a lot of games,
They have everything as a combo
Pace, bounce move the ball both ways.
Fingers crossed they all get on the park together consistently. -

Nah don’t agree he learns a lot playing 20/20
good way to build up just 4 overs at a time,
Builds a strength base for that back. -
220/6 off our 20. Weird innings, got totally bogged down through the 10-16 over mark. Not sure if that's good bowling, or Allen and Seifert playing well. Feels like we're either about 30 ahead of par or 30 behind.

Good win in the end, so I guess we were well ahead of par although I think some of that was scoreboard pressure.

Silly to give MOTM to Allen. It's a batsmen's game, multiple of our batsmen scored similar runs, the difference between the two sides is 4/20 from 4 overs. Those figures will win you most T20s and those early wickets ended Pakistan's chase before it started. Allen said in the interview he didn't deserve it.
That said, there are not many players as exciting as Allen to watch when he gets going like that.
