*Official* World Test Championship Final 2021

I know this is pretty controversial but I actually think Jamieson is more like 6’7” and a bit.

They said on the broadcast that his release point is somewhere around 2.3 m.
What do you think his release point really is.

I didn’t say NZ will win or india can’t. But I have been impressed by NZs bowling and batting here.

we were **** for most of yesterday though. Very very good today but that's just the way things go isn't it.

Our run rate is 1.7. We haven't got away on India at all.

India has bowled well without much luck but good session for us. Conway going to tea just short of twenty means man has big runs in sight. If he lasts another session he'll score huge....

 

[cnerd123]

The thing about bowling fuller isn't just that you get more edges, but front foot edges are easier to catch. As we saw here edges off the backfoot are more likely to fly above the slips, or pop up high into the air and into no-man's land.

Having short-leg in for Shami was a good idea. India bowled well, the NZ attack is just better suited to the conditions. None of our guys hunt purely on swing. We need Bhuvi. Sigh. He'd be a step up on Ashwin with batting and fielding too, and we'd still have Jadeja.

 

[hendrix]

We're crawling at the moment. India bowling well. I hope this gets easier because Latham inevitably gives a chance after 150 odd balls.

 

[cnerd123]

Shami was not so much chasing that ball as he was jogging with it to the fence.

Bumrah rusty early in this spell. That first ball wasn't a slower ball, he's just trying to get warmed up.

 

[Daemon]

10 off the over, quarter of the lead wiped out.

Need something soon :/

Yup, if he could at least make it to 70 after getting in would be pretty invaluable in the context here.

 

[cnerd123]

Ishant doing his best to choreograph a wicket there.

what is the origin?

Id rather stick with the cool kids like jedibrah, burgey and ymaxxx thanks

 

[Daemon]

**** off with all these edges not going to hand

for all the talk of bowling too short shami's had 4 genuine edges

Latham's 80 ball limit has been reached. He usually plays sleepy shots after this point.

 

[Gob]

Lack of turn for Ashwin is very confusing for me because if it seams it spins and it seamed

Averages around 89 balls per innings. Mental stamina will come into it now you’d think.

I don’t think it has seamed that much really.

Would rather embarrass Australia in Australia with a third string XI than win some tinpot world championship anyway.
