*Official* Bangladesh in New Zealand 2016/2017

[NZTailender]

Time for a new high score, Tommy boy. Good knock so far tho.

 

[Zinzan]

What's the ground at Napier like, results wise? Went there a few years ago and it's a flat out beautiful ground.

Not so great, mostly draws there. Beat Zim & lost to the poms in 2008. (Southee's debut IIRC).

 

[Mike5181]

Six test centuries for a 24 year old is a decent effort.

 

[_Ed_]

Jeez I'll be ****ed off if Latham has a concentration lapse and gets out for 60 again. He needs to push on today.

Turns out he wasn't the one I needed to worry about. Really well played.

 

[CM Punk]

If Latham works on his technical deficiencies, he could become our best batsmen.

I wouldn't mind giving him a chance as captain in a years time once he's more established.

 

[Blocky]

Nicholls looking outclassed by nude spin.

 

[Zinzan]

Nicholls looking outclassed by nude spin.

Lol He looks atrocious at times doesn't he, but it would be typical if he tons up against this lot and buys another 5 tests matches at number 5.

 

[Blocky]

Surely the selectors can't just allow this **** to continue, you've got three players arguably who aren't adding anything to the team at the moment; one of which has been tried almost 10 matches and failed miserably, the other two are "veterans" who have good performances in the bank, but nothing consistent.

 

[Blocky]

Smith's fact isn't that staggering; it's just symptomatic of how **** our opening batsmen have been

Surprised Fleming didn't get one while opening at the basin though.

He only scored 2 centuries in NZ in his career lol.

 

[Blocky]

Bangers persisting with their pacer, let's hope it costs Nicholls.

 

[Dick Rockett]

Jfc, Blocky is sucking my will to live.

 

[The Hutt Rec]

That's one of the most chance laden 35s I've ever seen in my life, from Nicholls.

 

[African Monkey]

He's only had 4 lives so far.

 

[cricman]

10 dropped chances between the 2 sides?

 

[Athlai]

Nicholas is a spud.

 

[Blocky]

Absolutely terrible batsman.

 

[harsh.ag]

Not being shown on TV here (maybe it's on one of the HD channels). So the Bangers can't lose this now at least. Pretty huge given everything. May have won had Mustafizur been available. What great times we live in.

And well done Latham! Guy's a hero. Key to NZ's success.

Bang could still lose this - if NZ scored at 4.5 (as they were for large chunks of today) - they'll be out of deficit with 100 odd overs left to play, stranger things have happened.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

no matter how many balls nicholls faces he looks the same after 100 balls as he did when he walked it. I admire his grit but he just doesn't seem to have "it".
