Wagner going @ 7's... Is he bowling his 128Km bouncers to no effect? Looks like we need to build pressure here.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Wet Wednesdays...

I like the ring to it

 

[The Hutt Rec]

This doesn’t surprise me too much ... the NZ players must be damn fatigued given the quick return from the UAE and short turnaround into this test. Sri Lanka batting well on a good pitch.

 

[straw man]

Patel's last over was really promising but we're running out of time.

Two wickets in the next 22 overs before the second new ball is all we need imo. Even one wicket might do it.

It's day 4. You have loads and loads of time.

Should lose two sessions if not the whole day to rain tomorrow.

 

[MagicPoopShovel]

Looks set for the"big partnership then everyone else falls for 5 runs and loses by an innings"

 

[Athlai]

Big oof. Basically all on our second new ball blowing them away now.

 

[M0rphin3]

Dang, declaration should have come a tad earlier. Didn't think of it much since they were three down and didn't look like recovering, but this would suck p bad if these two carry on like this.

And shocking econ for Wagner, what's happening?

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

At least Wagner's ER gone down below6

At least Wagner's ER gone down below6

He's bowling a lot better in this spell, IMO. But these two are still handling it well.

 

[Burgey]

need to find someone to rough up one side of the ball for some Akraming. Know anyone?

Imran Khan is busy these days. Sarfraz maybe.

 

[straw man]

NZ just politely waiting for Australia to take the first wicket of the day in Perth before we take one here. #NiceGuys #SpiritOfCricket

 

[MagicPoopShovel]

Mendis getting a little cheeky now. Calm the F down son.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Swacks!

 

[straw man]

Congrats to this pair. SL now firm favourites to bat out the day and that's possibly enough for the draw.

 

[MagicPoopShovel]

Another top session. Lots of runs scored as well. Good to see us go down with a bit of fight here

Need these two to bat deep into post tea as well to make sure there are no hiccups.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Sounds like a great effort from these two

 

[Binkley]

It is a good fight, but the Basin sure is turning into a one-trick pony isn’t it? A struggle for whoever bats first, followed by a roady road.

 

[MagicPoopShovel]

Superb 100 by Kusal Mendis. Take a bow. Job half done though.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Top class knock. Bat on cougar chaser
