**Official** Pakistan v New Zealand in the UAE 2014

[Blocky]

Sucks that our seamers can't bowl 7-8 over spells over there.

They could.. but then who do we have to bowl at the tail.

It'll be interesting to see if they come out after the spinners, the next five to ten overs will make or break the game.

The ball's only 8 overs old, Masood's looking uncomfortable and you take your best chances a wicket off for a bloke who's got one wicket in 400 balls this series. Weird. At least let Anderson/Neesham bowl.

 

[Athlai]

Keen to see this hawkeye.

offspinner to left hander + trolling attempt imo. Baz will know Pakistan don't rate Craig and might have a go.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Jesus christ that spin :o

 

[BeeGee]

Incredible take.

 

[Blocky]

That's a wicket, if they reviewed.

 

[Flem274*]

calling it hitting imo

if you're a left hander on this deck you're stuffed

This. (Made one small edit)

****. that review would've been out.

 

[Daemon]

masood pls

 

[OverratedSanity]

Expected Sodhi to cause problems to the lefties, because the rough is ideal for that angle. Will be far more interesting to see what he does against the right handers.

 

[Hurricane]

Sodhi is a real asset in this series.

 

[Blocky]

The thing in his favour is that he's bowled in positions of consolidation and can get himself into a rhythym, the pitch is also massively helpful to him and Craig.

But let's see if Pakistan get to 50-1 how they start to look at him. I still say he bowls some pretty hittable deliveries that at the moment, they're not going after.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Masood's batting getting a bit embarassing now.

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

Problem is Masood is the last lefty.

 

[OverratedSanity]

**** these two are lucky to be out there.

 

[hendrix]

god this is good to watch.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Problem is Masood is the last lefty.

Yeah, but Azhar's been shaky too tbh.

 

[Blocky]

Look at the turn Craig is extracting too, it's actually going to be hard for these guys constructing wickets, they won't know what to do and might get a bit spin crazy. In these conditions invariably it's the slider that gets you.
