*Official* New Zealand vs Pakistan 2022/23

Ball change lol good news maybe. Seam separated.

Sometimes this means the new one hoops both ways.

 

[straw man]

Just catching up on today's play, was thinking 'what is this collapse' though tbf that's a very good piece of swing bowling to get rid of Williamson, and I'm surprised how much Mitchell's wicket-ball gripped (as was he obviously).

 

[Gob]

Is Rizwan injured?

Is Rizwan injured?

Nope, got binned for sarfaraz at the start of this series. Has worked out so far, but not a fan of it.

 

[ashley bach]

Just as Henry was set for a big double century.

 

[ashley bach]

Well done to Pakistan for completely turning this game around.

 

[Moss]

Not good enough from Nicholls once again, needed to anchor this innings with the top 3 gone. Game on though, Pakistan have been immensely good since tea.

 

[Flem274*]

Yeah that should be it for Nicholls. Demotion to reserves imo.

Macewell needs to show why his two dads rate him. This is well below par.

 

[thierry henry]

Well ummmm we’ve ummmm totally ****ed this up

 

[Moss]

Well hopefully Macewell makes up for this with the ball.

350 looks a long way off now.

 

[ashley bach]

Think it's time Maceball headed back to 20/20.

 

[Flem274*]

Yeah handy part time offices but barely fc standard batsman can't score runs at test level shocker.

 

[thierry henry]

If you’re going to pick a terrible player at least pick one with a less annoying head

 

[straw man]

Yeah at least one of Phillips or Young deserve a shot in place of Nicholls or Macewell next time we play a test.

 

[thierry henry]

That injury has to be proof that Naseem is not really 19

 

[Flem274*]

Yeah at least one of Phillips or Young deserve a shot in place of Nicholls or Macewell next time we play a test.

Next time we play will be at home. Surely we learn from the England tour...

 

[Flem274*]

50s from each is still only 350. Pakistan on top imo.

Miles on top - this collapse has swung the game enormously in their favour. NZ have to somehow get to 400-450 which is a huge ask from here.

I wouldn’t hold my breath. I liked that both Doull and Styris brought up how much he’s struggled over the past 3-4 years, but Stead will give him a long rope. The fact he was named in the one day team ahead of guys like Young and Chapman is proof of that.

Doull casting aspersions on Naseem's age with the cramp chat lol
