*Official* Pakistan in New Zealand 2020/21

[nightprowler10]

Gohar is easy on the eyes. Neat knock.

Yeah played some lovely drives to KJ.

im not liking sucking off

Yeah i know

Faheem being so gun with the bat on this tour is classic Pakistan.

It'll probably never happen again, but every couple of years until retirement he'll get a random recall as a batting allrounder even though he's a meh change bowler who slaps a few because remember New Zealand.

Bowled decently as well. Wasn’t a fan coming into the series, but he has done surprisingly well.

Craig McMillan cursing like a witch there

 

[straw man]

NZ needed that, tail wag was getting annoying. Poor shot after a good cameo.

It's almost 7pm, is there even time for a change of innings now if we take the last two quickly? Wouldn't be bad to avoid two overs of batting at the end of the day.

 

[nightprowler10]

Unnecessary from Gohar. Well done for a debutante though.

 

[harsh.ag]

Shaheen to bowl them out for 105

Pakistan score is probably about par, maybe slightly above it? A good effort after being inserted.

I'd say 60/40 in favour of Pakistan after Day 1.

boult has not had a great summer to date

yussss he strikes as i type

 

[Athlai]

Good first day of battling cricket.

It's pretty humid and I napped through most of it

 

[The Hutt Rec]

I think NZ have done well enough with a non-first choice bowling attack. They'll back themselves to bat a couple of days as batting condition improve. Match has progressed well, too.

Feels way above par to me, the ball has seamed all day. Seems like a track you could get absolutely rolled on. But we’ve been known to score big on ‘green’ home tracks before so I won’t be entirely shocked if that happens.

Should've made NZL play 2 overs.

 

[Burgey]

300 odd after being sent in is always pretty decent imho. Particularly if you’re the away side. Hopefully makes for a good contest.

We will bowl slightly too short, most will be left alone, any edges will be dropped or drop short. Kane will ton up.

 

[Meridio]

Haven't been able to watch for most of the day, but having seen how much the ball has moved here I'm pretty disappointed Pakistan have got to almost 300. Think there's been a few too many freebies off the hip, long hops and genuine half volleys compared to how we've bowled every other test this summer. Haven't quite had the consistency.

 

[Daemon]

Cricket is so ****ing stupid. Australia get docked WTC points for being 2 overs short, meanwhile here they deliberately cut play short for no reason.

@Burgey said I was going to say word for word.

With that score on the board and the pitch moving the way it is, Pakistan stand a good chance if they bowl well.
