Muuuuch better over from Southee second time around.

Missed that over. Found his rader has he?

 

[Bahnz]

Think Henry's natural length is too short for this wicket. Needs to adjust to get it a couple yards fuller.

 

[Blocky]

Henry remains disappointing and non threatening in test cricket.

His success in ODI cricket comes down to being a hard length to get away, but he's easy to defend against.

How many catches were dropped off Amir (excluding the c&b)

Two.

 

[Daemon]

Two.

Christ. That's about 10 since his return then.

 

[Blocky]

Good line Southee - great stuff so far, he's pushing that ball across the lefties really nicely with his variation cutter.

 

[Blocky]

Christ. That's about 10 since his return then.

Yup - he was again easily the best bowler on show, late swing at 140KPH, great lines, making the batsman play regularly, just being let down by the fielders.

 

[Zinzan]

Bowling Southee.

And is Raval now our safest slipper?

 

[_Ed_]

After dropping him twice, it must have been pretty galling for Sami Aslam to then be caught by Raval.

 

[Bahnz]

Will be interesting to see whether a bowl off with Henry can do anything to bring the best out of Tim.

Haha, yep.

 

[Blocky]

Bowling Southee.

And is Raval now our safest slipper?

More importantly, can we convince Williamson he's perfectly alright captaining from gully.

 

[Blocky]

I don't think our bowling attack will miss Boult. I actually think our best bowling line up excludes either one of Southee or Boult and that each of them will actually do better when the other isn't there.

Superb Southee...

 

[Zinzan]

Lovely outswinger .. classic dismissal.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

Southee definitely responding well to having a bit of fire up his ass. Just need Henry to nip a couple now

 

[vcs]

Good to Southee back amongst the wickets

 

[Daemon]

Pakistan #1 side in the world. Give me a break, these muppets lost to WI at home.

 

[Bahnz]

And now a much better lemgth from Henry.

 

[morgieb]

Christ. That's about 10 since his return then.

I know when we call a bowler unlucky it usually means he's bowling too short. Amir is a bowler that is genuinely unlucky. I reckon he's probably had more catches dropped off him than caught!
