***Official*** New Zealand in the West Indies 2014

Ugh, Gayle looks as bad as Tim Southee at the moment. Bet he'll troll a disgusting 100 today.

 

[Bahnz]

This is just bad bowling from Southee. Letting himself get spooked by a couple of leaden footed flails, and dropping short. Utter waste of the new ball.

Can't see it if his form so far is anything to go by.

 

[Bahnz]

Don't like Boult's strategy of going around the wicket to Brathwaite.

 

[Swingpanzee]

pretty **** bowling by nz so far.

 

[Howsie]

Early days yet but Craig looks about as toothless as Shillingford was.

 

[Bahnz]

Reverse swing after 19 overs...

 

[Zinzan]

NZ have been incredibly poor so far. Zero control.

 

[Swingpanzee]

The bowling in general looks a bit panicked and unfocused. Boult is trying way too much from short stuff to pointlessly going round the wicket. Craig is well, Craig. Southee looks flat. Aside from the bowling, gotta admit this opening partnership is good, both Braithwaite and Gayle complement each other. Could be a long hard day for NZ if things stay the same. Still very early though.

 

[Bahnz]

Yeah, Southee in particular has been complete arse. The worst I've seen him bowl since the 2nd test v England last year.

 

[GGG]

Still early days but my prediction of whoever bats second will only bat once is looking good. I don't like the tactics of sticking to what worked once, Craig should of been replaced by Wagner and Rutherford by Anderson and McCullum should of bowled first.

 

[Swingpanzee]

Time to bring in Wagner, I suppose? He has a knack of taking wickets out of nowhere.

 

[GotSpin]

No need to panic yet. Only a few wickets away from the tail. Great start for Windies though

Now you're just doing this to piss me off.

Haha, Bravo. So so glad about that. That was a genuine tail-ender innings from Gayle. Just awful stuff.

 

[BeeGee]

Throw away from Gayle. The only way we looked like getting a wicket, tbh.

 

[Swingpanzee]

WTF where did that wicket come from?

 

[Swingpanzee]

On a side note, Rutherford finally does something for his side this match.

 

[Bahnz]

Nah, Gayle has looked like getting out almost every other ball today. Mind you, you could've said the same about his innings at Trinidad, and he ended up absolutely destroying the bowling attack (admittedly in a no pressure situation).

 

[Bahnz]

Time to take Southee off. This is rank.
