37th Match - New Zealand v Bangladesh (13th March)

[Niall]

Guptil has played the innings that Bell needed to against Bangladesh.

 

[Flem274*]

dammit

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

well played Guptill

 

[Flem274*]

makes shakib look good but he should have been bowling shortly after the 20th over. They need to go bang bang now and have no room for a partnership.

Elliott sucks in Asia and this is the most Bangladesh-ish ground in NZ so they have a bit of an opening here.

 

[NZTailender]

Still cracks me up Elliott walks out to Freaks.

Shame that Bangladesh is unlikely to play SA this tournament. Then we could have had Amla de Kock Sarkar.

 

[Flem274*]

elliott will be good for keeping that required rate from getting out of control. guptill was picking his gaps well for once but elliott is a master nurdler.

now that i say that three dot balls and a massive smash lol

 

[NZTailender]

Taylor 100*+ and Elliott 50*+ please

 

[Flem274*]

not lucky rusty, that's what elliott does

 

[Jono]

take them home Luggage

 

[Grasshopper]

Whatever the result, it's good to see Guptill and Taylor getting good scores.

 

[Flem274*]

this is such an elliott innings it's a parody

 

[NZTailender]

This match going a lot of the way to silence any questions marks over our batting order tbh.

 

[Moss]

Elliott showing why he should have been a more regular member of the one day side. Despite some obvious technical shortcomings, he has this ability to play shots around the clock. Must be maddening to set a field to.

 

[Flem274*]

hmmm

 

[Jayzamann]

I wonder why they didn't check the front foot there...

 

[jonbrooks]

Taylor is playing one of the best test match knocks I've ever seen.

 

[Jono]

don't you dare do this NZ

 

[Flem274*]

when taylor decides it's time to hit out they'll hear the clunk in bangladesh

 

[jonbrooks]

Hmm, Elliot blows it. Not the best short to play there. Let's see what Corey can do. He's been struggling a bit.
