Hiding Lynn down the order.

'The team's been selected to play to their potential' - Slats

This implies that teams normally aren't selected to play to their potential.

 

[Burgey]

I'm not watching this but I'm looking at the score card and I'm struggling to recognise most of the Aussies. Who the heck is D'Arcy Short and Billy Stanlake? In contrast, the Kiwis seem to have all their major guns.

Stanlake is something out of a monster movie.

Was good in Water Rats in the 90s too.

 

[TheJediBrah]

Short has the potential to become a better version of David Warner, who can bowl genuine left-arm wrist spin

edit: I said potential . . .

southee again

 

[straw man]

Absolute garbage from Southee so far - tricky pitch unless you're bowling 128 ks half trackers

edit:

 

[Athlai]

Not a good over this from Southee

 

[Starfighter]

Very nicely timed shot from Short straight to the fielder. Disappointing.

 

[Flem274*]

lol what a spud

 

[Athlai]

Good over this from Southee

 

[TheJediBrah]

This is pretty moronic batting. Just hit the slow half-track **** to fielders for catches, great plan.

 

[Starfighter]

Oh my. It's not like we need to go like the clappers here. You don't need to throw it away.

 

[Flem274*]

'the experience of boult the new zealand captain'

 

[Athlai]

Well caught by Bruce there

 

[Flem274*]

great catch by br00ce

 

[TheJediBrah]

I mean you literally need only just over a run a ball, and with Duckworth Lewis with potential to come in you want to keep wickets in hand. Pure idiocy.

 

[S.Kennedy]

Stanlake is something out of a monster movie.

Was good in Water Rats in the 90s too.

I see what you mean. He looks a bit like Peter Crouch.

 

[Starfighter]

Going across a batsman with a slicey technique, with no deep point. Yeah, nah.

 

[Flem274*]

if they like variations wait until they realise he has a carrom ball

hopefully kp isn't on comms

 

[TheJediBrah]

Santner just needs to bowl slow and loopy to Lynn. He won't last an over.
