***Official*** New Zealand in Bangladesh & Sri Lanka 2013

[Maximas]

damn damn! Nasir and Gazi to carry now, but tbh this game really needed those 2 wickets

 

[ohnoitsyou]

if only this happened much earlier...

 

[Prensel]

So the seamers get 2 wickets in 2 overs, and then 2 overs later we put on a spinner?

 

[Daemon]

Are the seamers really that tired or is McCullum being an idiot?

 

[ohnoitsyou]

hopefully no more Sohdi after this

Edit: or not. I suppose both everyone else is shattered

 

[Maximas]

Nasir probably as good as anyone to bat with the tail, but from what I've seen Gazi, Razzak and Robiul only seem interested in giving it a whack, hopefully it comes off and Bangladesh get close to 470, this pitch has shown that batsmen intent only on defense are very hard to remove

If they are, they might as well just bowl Fulton.

 

[GGG]

Who in the selection panel though Sodhi was up to scratch? It was so painfully obvious that he isn't ready or may not ever be ready for internationals. A poor first class record, a poor NZ A series, what more needed to be spelt out to the selector/s?

baz can bowl 120 ks as well

bowls well without luck

Now is a good time to be proactive Baz and pull a card out of the deck.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Should have gone for another seamer instead of Sodhi as I said, teams get caught up at looking at Bangladesh's bowling attack - but they have next to no decent seamers and they also play spin a lot better than seam.

These pitches tend to be so slow that even if it turns you can't get people out. But those are really crap pitches for developing cricket skills needed to compete anywhere else.

He would be too tired to bowl due to his great captaincy he has displayed.

 

[ohnoitsyou]

yusss, someone who might actually take a wicket

 

[ohnoitsyou]

how come these Bangladesh batsmen never play down the wrong line, or have concentration lapses.

 

[Athlai]

Ah Bruce Martin and Sodhi. Reminding Kiwis why we keep going back to Jeets.

Good to see.

 

[straw man]

Well that didn't go to plan

 

[Mike5181]

Meh, it's been an uninspiring bowling effort so far, but this really is a road.

 

[Prensel]

Two overs from Boult, and back to spin again, why??!

 

[Hurricane]

Our seamers 5-127
