Calculus looks more attractive that watching Guptill against anything but gun-barrel straight bowling

 

[straw man]

Oh gawd

 

[Mike5181]

Yeah, it was a decent ball. Guptill's still useless though.

 

[straw man]

Nice ball by Kulasekara

 

[wellAlbidarned]

can Bangladesh please hurry up and lose so I can watch this

 

[Bahnz]

Yuck. My tolerance for Guptill is stretched closer to breaking point with each successive innings. Picking Kane to make a scrappy 57 today.

front foot cover drive from kane.

wheres that avatar i made back in the day?

 

[Bahnz]

WTF?! They actually picked Astle?

 

[_Ed_]

Hit it.

Tricia McMillan still has it iirc.

keep up ****

without wanting to tempt the cricket gods, well woops i just did but its mccullum so who cares, but this is the most confident i've seen KW in a long time.

 

[straw man]

Knew ****ing idiot umpire would give that.

 

[Bahnz]

Ffs, this team is **** enough without having to deal with bull**** like that.

 

[Hurricane]

**** this is looking worse than normal.

 

[Viscount Tom]

You guys should apply to join the nZ test team eventually they'll find some decent batsmen, failing that recall Cairns and Macmillan, they can't do any worse.

 

[Flem274*]

can't believe people argue the charm of the umpires and technology isnt 100% call is why we shouldnt have udrs.

i mean mccullum getting angry is pretty funny, but that was a bit dire.

(yes i know SL couldnt afford the tech, which is why udrs needs to become official and funding provided)

 

[Hurricane]

Hope Kane doesn't go into his shell.

meanwhile Astle is putting on his pads already.

mcmillan was a myth tbh. he hid down at six, batted like an idiot regardless of the match situtation and only ever scored tough runs if he had a dodgy curry the night before.

 

[Hurricane]

That ball Kane just blocked - Guptil would have nicked it. Kane adjusted to the leg cut.

Isn't the batting like an idiot something your not short of anyway?

Anyway what about Fleming surely he's available?
