*Official* Bangladesh in New Zealand 2016/2017

Classic NZ mega green pitch troll. Funnily enough, the Black Caps fell for the trap once again..

To be fair though, Banga's have done really well here, NZ not so much. BD need to consolidate this morning, if they drop 2 quick wickets, it could be enough for NZ to rip through them.

BTW Colin better not be batting ahead of Watling.

I don't have a lot of faith in this Bangers batting lineup outside of Mominul. Reckon if we knock him over fairly early today we could still roll them for sub 300.

Southee about to run through them here, proving his deserved spot in the ATG NZ side.

Sorry, thought I was Blocky 2014 there.

Pitch won't have lost much of its assistance today I assume ... the wind might have dried it off, but then it rained anyway yesterday. With much better bowling conditions today this could be a good morning for NZ.

Southee has been pretty on form since our home summer began. A shame that Boult's seemingly done the opposite though and found Southee's form of 2015-2016.

Rahim and Shakib are certainly capable batsman, but I don't think they'll be able to put together a partnership we can't break, after that we may get some flair from Sabbir but I'd expect Bangladesh's tail to collapse against Southee/Wagner/Santner.

From a casual glance at Cricinfo it seems like NZ have - again - been too short this morning.
Yeah, a bit. I think they're bowling to a plan (trying to entice a hook shot), but most of the time they haven't got it right.

Had this thought too, that they've alternated poor form the last couple of years. And most annoyingly, that the poor form is not just unpenetrative allowing the other to operate well, but rather full-on crap a lot of the time, undermining the other bowler's efforts.

Helped by some inconsistent bowling, but Shakib's played some superb shots this morning.
